You think that's a bad day! I had to collect a 17 seat minibus this morning, got it started and scraped all the ice off and told the hire company that the left indicator was busted so he told me to take the other bus, so that's twice I had to scrape off ice, then took some students down the smoke (London) and I hate that place, eventually got home and due to poor timings on traffic lights took 2 hours and 10 minutes to do 8 miles along with a LOT if frustrated drivers.

That's a bad day.

Ps. Off to Viking motorcycle seats tomorrow for gel insert.

Lagunas - hate them with a vengeance. Sis owned one and it was bad news.

Oh ! My laguna is nearly 12 years old, from new, Y Reg, only 65000 miles ... serviced every year by my man and never had a problem ... truly money well spent  :)

I feel your pain. I hate it when that sort of thing happens. Enough room to attack with one of these from the top..... ?
