Well the car has finally died. The engine siezed up. Apparently the oil wasn't being pumped where it should be so basically running without oil!

Anyway. Having spent about 150 pounds per month on two cars, just on maintenance costs since Oct. :lol: I've decided we will make do with just the one car. A clapped out ford escort with 180 000 miles on the clock .

Hopefully this will last until I get my bonus next month. Another bonus down the drain!!!! Last year I had to spend it on fixing a burst water main, this year its a car. One day I will get to spend it on something I want rather than something I need or have to get. There goes the holiday down the drain again! Why is it when you think you're winning, something comes along and kicks you in the teeth?
