Going to get tailgate guard altered and new tyres on car for tomorrow's HnH, really excited!!! Get to Milnsbridge and bugger me the tailgate won't open!! Totally jammed so race round to tyre man (they have a garage) to see if he can open it. He just bangs on the boot lid and of course it opens, silly me why did I not know that lol!!! So he manages to put 2 spanking new tyres on so it looks fab, race back round to fabricators for the tailgate, get measured up. USe brain quickly and zoomy-zoom to Honley garage who point me in the direction of another workshop, very nice man has a quick look, says he can fix it Monday, but in the meantime shows me the manual keyhole that was hiding all along. Bouyed up in the knowledge I could open the door we were still on for HnH.
Billy Woofs and Jette's sausages chopped it's an early night....
Jette Saturday:
I'm asleep on the hall floor outside the bedroom and yipppeeeeeee the extra early alarm is going which means we're going jumpies!!!!! Mum's got the show bag out, I can smell pig's ears, this is fab I'm soooo excited!! Running zoomy-zoom up to car...mum puts key in..nothing happens, boot won't open.
She tries again....I'm really excited now, come on mum I want to go jumpies...mum you're crying, don't cry I'll behave....I'll be ever-so-good....why are we going back in the house?
Mum Saturday: So that was HnH....all that excitement for nothing again, boot will not open and can't risk travelling with no access to spare wheel... so I've come to the decision we're not doing any more shows, this happens too often, if it's not the car it's something else, I thought with a new car we'd be fine but I've had enough, it's bad enough for me to be disappointed but worse still to see Jette.
We've had a giggle, some good runs and we've some ace mates but it's time to say enough's enough....no more.
Awwww poor you its so crap when it doesn't rain it pours, it must have been such a disappointment for both of you especailly being up so early already to go :( I hope you come out to play once the norty car has earned back your trust as we love to watch out for our labbie pals especially as they have some really fabby runs and teach those collies us labs aren't to be discounted ;D
