Well the car needs a new engine :rolleyes:
I am sooooooooooo flucked off it's unbeleivable, I knew it was a bad idea getting the poxy thing in the first place!
OH is gonna say he wants to fix it but I'm seriously putting my foot down this time, the bloke said he can do it but it will just be throwing away money, them cars are not worth fixing, funnily enough I looked on ebay at how much they are going for as speares and repairs and all the alfas are all 156's and nearly all of them need new engines :rolleyes:
I';m so angry right now.

AM - i read about your car trouble yesterday and really feel for you. hubby and i have been a similar position to you previously and it is absolutely gutting.

oh a good note for you.........aston is an adorable boy and you should be so very proud and you have another gorgeous one on the way (did that help??)

MFD - did your work give you anything when you left on Friday???

Welcome Helen and Vicstar :hello:

r.mac - thanks for your birth story. Don't think I'm going to read anyone else's though as I am pooping myself enough already!

Feel so sick today _pale_ - haven't eaten anything yet and someone cooked something really smelly which made me want to vomit. My boss wants to see me as well about areas of concern - not sure if this is related to hitting targets or me!!

Nicki - we are moving up slowly!

Anyway, came onto say that Argos are having a clearance and there is some stuff in Nursey section reduced by half.

Strange, I took a notion for french onion soup, even thoughI have never tasted it before Onions are sweating and caramelising as we speak.

Going to have a look on freecycle and ad trader for baby stuff.

We paid £900 in December to fix our car. It stopped working after 6 weeks, and the scrap value was £0. That was a bit hard to take!

See the amount it would take to fix the car, I could get a decentish one off the mechaninc with a full years ticket on it and basically a garuntee with him that of anything went wrong he could fix it at a cheap rate.
Just spoke to OH and he seems to be coming round, only thing is now we have no ready cash for a car, just spent £400 on the Alfa, and the mechanic wont take it off us for spares or repair, we have to sell it ourselves, I want to cry.....
