RAC cover... Don't have an accident!!


It seems RAC cover is fine if you break down. On the other hand if you have an accident you are probably not going to get ANY help from them.
Keep that in mind when your looking for roadside cover.
Recently, They left a dissabled woman alone in London at night because she had a tyre damaged in a minor accident.

Ford electrics.... part two, the saga continues


 I mentioned before Fords famed electrical "issues" and the problems with changing a simple headlight bulb or a battery.
 Well in part two we're going to discuss the rear lights. Oh to be fair you don't have to take both rear wheels off to change the side light bulb at the back, amazingly they made an opening you can just about get your hand in to get at the bulbs.
 No this time they were clever. They lulled me into a false sense of security!
 You see the bulb in the handbook is different to the bulb actually fitted in the light, not that it mattress, I asked in the shop and the bloke went tappy-tap-tap on the computer and gave me the right bulb.... well not exactly, it looks like the right bulb... but the contacts and bayonet pins are ever so slightly different, not enough to be obvious, just enough so the fucker wont fit.
 Three bloody time I went back and fro, in the end I took the original bulb in and they matched it. "Thats the wrong bulb" the bloke in the shop tells me, "I've got the same car, same year,  it wont fit" he added.  It did though.
Bloody Fords!

Mumbles pier, closed


 Took my mother down Mumbles over the weekend for a day out. The pier was closed. To be honest it's been in a terrible state for some years, long overdue for repairs.
 Didn't take many pics, so I'l post the ones I did get.

Thank you Tesco... Bastards!


 Well a big thank you to Tescos in Port Talbot. Fancy holding a ZOMBIE day and not telling the poor bastards who were actually trying to shop there!.
 Ok, to be fair it wasn't really Tescos fault. It's just the bloody nutcases who shop there. Seriously, it's like the bloody zombie apocalypse in there this morning.
 Literally dozens of shuffling ragged filthy things staggering around the shop at the speed of an arthritic partially sighted snail on mogadon.
 Not helped by Tesco having two or three cages blocking half of every aisles. That made it much harder to pass the bloody zombies or the morons standing in the middle just staring vacantly into space, I couldn't tell if they are just twats or having a fucking seizure.
