We are finally back home. The traffic was horrendous just to top the day off.
They are going to valet the car as an apology but it really shouldn't have happened in the first place. Its also cost us more money as we have had to put more fuel in the loan car when ours is almost full.
Fingers crossed they get all the bits back on it properly tomorrow.1 -

Not a no spends day today. I need to go to the shops to pick a few bits up for the weekend after work, the dog is at the vets for a check up and his vaccinations after work and we have decided we are having KFC for dinner tonight.
Breakfast was cereals and we have both taken our packed lunches to work.
As we don't have our car back the other half has dropped me off at work so I will walk down to the garage after work to meet him and the dog. Hopefully we should have our car back in one piece by then.
Tonight's jobs are:- taking the dog to the vets
- shopping
- loading up the van
- walking the dog

Hope the car gets sorted today! You may be busy this evening but it's for the greater good if it makes it easier in the morning. You're just being your future friend.
