  1. Picked van up from MOT fail, got the tyre replaced returned to MOT station has now passed.

    Drove to Swindon for night shift been given the wrong postcode by Amazon of all people ended up in a residential area and not anywhere near Amazon. Drove home, sent email to client, awaiting their reply which should be interesting after I’d warned them previously of bad information being passed to me.

  2. Off on the boat for a few days to avoid the festival carnage that’s going on near where we live. Just moored up at a lovely quiet spot in the middle of nowhere.

  18. Went to Carfest. Was a good day out, not worth the £95 per person entrance fee though.

    And judging by the number of people there, all spending obscene amounts of money feeding their families shit food, the “cost of living crisis” is clearly utter bollocks.
