What A Carry On

As much as I love having a car and the independance that goes with it. I sometimes think that I might be better of without it.

First off theres the insurance which is a healthy £650 a year, then tax at around £120 a year, MOT around £50 a year. So before i've even touched the tarmac I've spent almost £850. damn. And with the future of fuel prices about as predicatable as a hookers pants thats even more money gone(the fuel not the hooker).

The last couple of months havn't been my favourite where my car is concerned. 2 windows broken one of which getting repaired this afternoon and I had to get the AA out yesterday to start it because I hadn't been out in it for a month because it's had the broken window.

Whether it's a good thing or not I decided that I was going to concentrate on my uni work over the past month and not get my car fixed untill now, the advantage is i got my work done without adding any more stress to things, the bad thing is I've neglected my car. Normally I would use my car 2 or 3 times a week to go to and from the gym but with so much work and the car not working thats gone out the window too. Apart from the odd game of squash and walking to uni i've not got much excercise so i'm feeling a little unfit. Still, i'm fitter now than I have been for a long time which is nice.

Anyway, i'm going to finish packing.
toodles!!
