Bad week here mechanically.
Was pruning something with a hand pruner using one hand but giving it some
grunt. Snapped the pruners in half.
Topped up the tank on the lawnmower (couldn't do any more pruning). All ready
to roll. Pulled starter cord. Cord snapped. Damn.
Decided to go play car as garden Gods clearly not in a good mood.
Went to work on Interceptor, as wipers seem to go on with ignition in
defiance of wiper switch being either off or on. Discovered that the door lock
has
decided to become non-unlockable. Futz! Make mental note to talk wife into
crawling between carport wall and car to get in passenger side so we can unlock
it
from the inside and begin the disassembly of the door.
OK- went to work on Lamborghini - needs waking up, hosing off and maybe a
nice drive to blow out cobwebs (mine). Door lock works (good first step). Hook
up battery - horn is honking. Know it wasn't that way when I uinhooked it last
time. Press horn button a few times. Horn honks a little louder, but refuses
to stop when released. Neighbours now peering over fence.
Unhook battery.
Go to MGC (pretty sure that IT will run). License plate expired.
Open bottle of wine.
The hell with garden and all cars. Decide to take mental health day instead.
