This afternoon, I had left something in the car which was parked around the back of the house... because someone had parked in my space on the road. I went to get what I wanted out of the car and decided to move it to its normal space, but when I tried to start it, it wouldn't start (am having trouble with immobiliser).
I took the hand brake off and let it roll down the hill a bit, thinking it would start again as it often does... but it didn't and I was blocking the road as a guy was trying to get past. One of the neighbours came out and they started to push it further up the road, but in the end the guy said he would pull it up the road again, if I steered it left a bit so he could get past.
I ran around to my house to make sure that my auntie wasn't here as she is due... and told my husband (who is in bed, really ill) that a nice man was towing my car and to keep an eye out for my auntie... well, he dived out of bed going mental saying you can't tow an automatic car...
.. came around the back of the house like a right grumpy sod and was whinging saying its the last time I'm having the car... anyways, he sits in the car whilst the guy ties a rope to the front end and my husband looks at him like he's mad because he has no tow bar. The guy explained that he had no tow bar as they had to take it off to make room for his LPG conversion.
I said 'wow'.. is that the gas tank in the back then? He said 'no, that's our old washing machine that I'm taking to the tip' :o . My husband looked at me and shook his head in disgust and the guy laughed...
Anyways.. we got the car back and my auntie still isn't here and my husband is whinging his head off about everything in the other room... glad he has gone deaf in one ear as I can now curse him quite loudly and get away with it! :lol:
Why do men think they are so great????
