Postie turns up so out i go get the mail..Great all we get is a parking fine for parking in a no stopping zone..So i goes down the road to check it out & yes as usual they have changed a 4 hour parking spot into a NO STOPPING zone so i'll have to wear that one..
The fine was for $206.
We are just waiting for a letter from the realestate now to say our rent is going up which we get every 6 months & its been 6 months so just waiting for it ..It will come they do it every 6 months without fail..
And when i went to check the sign down the road the GEARBOX is now making that noise again.Funny grinding growling noise.
Completely over it we are in the last 3 months we have spent over $1000 on it for a new clutch & then the $700 for the carby rebuild & tune up..
It could be a $10 bareing or seal but i doubt it id say it needs a complete rebuild & honestly i dont want to have to work on it again.
When i did the clutch i had to do it in the rain.
And if its a fine day i end up with a massive migrain as im on & off with my sunglasses so i cant win..
The camper need to be rego'd to but thats not a big drama as it will be free but it does need a pink slip cause of its weight & we have to get a stat dec form so i can put it in karens name for the free rego cause you can only have one rego per name & the car is in mine..
We both are over Cardiff you have to drive around for ever to find a park anywhere & everything has changed & geting worse around here..
Had a plumber in this week to change taps & shower head to the new water efficiant ones so when ya have a shower now you need it turned on flat out just to get a drible & ya just sit the kettle in the sink to fill it up as it takes forever..GGGGGGGRRRRRRRRR..
So the green car is up for sale or swap so if you know anyone looking for one tell them to get in touch with us & if there lucky i mite just throw the gearbox & Tcase from Harry in with it ..ITs not rebuild but it does have all new gaskets & seals & brandnew handbrake shoes I even put a brandnew boot thingy on the back for the linkage..
ITS like Karen said one thing starts to look up for us & then everything just falls to **** as usual & we are both sic of it ..So Xmas round here will be a very happy great time NOT just like usual..
Told yas i hate this time of year & atleast Karen & I wont be arguing on me birthday for once so that could be good maybe ask me after next friday & i'll tell ya.
But yes let us know if use know anyone that mite be interested in the car for sale or swap.Also i'm not taking anything aff it so everything will go with it even the whinch although the PTO is in the shed as it needs a seal thats all. I get sic of the burning oil smell on the exhaust from the leaking oil seal at rear of PTO so thats the only reason its off..It all works fine..
Has the 100 amp second deapcycle battery & auto split charge , mini fridge between the seats & all the radios..Oh & its all engineered for the full power steering , Its not the ram type..plenty of pics if anyone wants some..

Well stayed up at mums lastnite to help them move there stuff into storage since the house is sold & they have to be out by the 21st.

Towed the camper up as i had to go out satdy morning & car seemed ok .
It towed the camper up ok & its fairly heavy the camper & even heavier coming home as the kids brought some stuff home with them & it towed ok again. BUT that flywheel with those 2 bushes in the middle well they make a rattling noise..There not a snug fit to start with so will look at that later on..Completely stuffed after moving there stuff plus we did all the lawns.

What a time of the year to get a move on notice Banjo
I hope rentals your way are easier to come by than in Perth.Its a mess over here,low income earners cant get anything,many are camping in caravan parks and the bush.
GOODLUCK.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TOO.

Yeah the rental market around hear is just as bad we pay $300 a week for this place & we have the cheapest house in cardiff. & that only has off street parking..They are paying the same for a 2 bdrm flat with off street parking & usualy there old building..The newer buildings for the same get around $350..

Yeah thanks..turning 40 on friday..oh joy
