Default I've been Cursed.

Good morning folks how is everybody, well was going to head to Brecon Becons and also meet Steve/Stevenicks.

Just went to the garage to tank up on diesel ready for eh trip, full tank, it hadn't seen full tank in a long time, after getting the fuel and chocolate bar of Galaxy, yes needed the energy after having a phone at stupid o clock from Keegan asking if I wanted to work this morning.

I couldn't sleep after that.

Anyway as I'm heading home to get a few things from the house and pressed the button the button for the Sat nav, guess what , it doesn't work, so I'm pressed the button like hell and still nothing, so got a small screw driver and pressed the reset button and held it for a few seconds as it says on the manual and nothing.

So I'm charging it now and going to give it other attempt, if it doesn't work I'll have to see if this could be repaired or buy other one.

Not a good start.

Sorry Steve but it looks like I won't be able to make it today, are you ok for 2moro same time?
without the sat nav I wouldn't
't chance driving down, I'm afraid of getting lost in the trees.

This is annoyed me now, Felt like throwing the thing out the window or running it over.

I could do, if only my map reading skills were any good, plus Just been talking to Steve on the phone to let him know of the situation.

We were both saying that reading maps and driving can be a pain in the back side, plus with my maps skills being below average and I'd have to keep pulling over all the time.


Thank you for being understanding Steve and I'll 100% see you 2moro morning.

See you 2moro mate.

Still can't believe that club member from the probe club has gone behind my back tho, that's really cheesed me off, could explain why he didn't give me his details in full yesterday, then checking the forum to see that the gearbox, clutch flywheel were sold to other member even tho I told him I'd give him cash and arranged collection, which could have been today part form the sat nav which I sent him a text to let him know, funny enough which he hasn't replied too.

Either way I wanted them and I would have collected them.
if I hadn't had checked this morning we were on the phone I wouldn't' have known.

I wish he told me about it, instead I felt like I've been brushed under the carpet.

Despite that I'll still want to head over to Brecon and meet you in person, that's what the club is all about meeting members and there cars, at the same time sharing our information we have about the cars.

keep the passion alive.
