No Driving Lesson Today

I was meant to have a driving lesson about half an hour ago, but my driving instructor still hasn't shown up! I have to leave for work in an hour, so I'll have to postpone my lesson.

I gave my instructor a call, and apparently she locked herself out of her car!

Flat Tyre

We had just finished youth group, and all got in our car. As we were travelling down the road, something didn't feel right. Aonghas pulled over at the Trusts Stadium (which is pretty much across the road from our church) and we discovered we had a punctured tyre!

None of us knew how to change a tyre, and everyone had left church by now! It was also past 11pm at night, so most people would be asleep too! It was all up to us!

 Aonghas went on the net and with the help of Andrew jacked up the car, found the spare one and replaced it. 

Forty minutes later...

The culprit turned out to be a screw!

100,000km!

The odometer of the Mitsubishi Lancer we just got a few months ago reached a milestone just tonight on the way home from youth group.

It ticked over from 99999km

I think that means it's almost time to replace the car's cambelt sometime soon right?

Our New Baby

This is our new beauty, a Mitsubishi Lancer 1998! I found it on TradeMe earlier this week. Yesterday we went over to check it out. It turns out that it used to be a boy-racer car, but it's been un-boy-racered to the point that it is now legal!

While our mechanic friend recommended that it wasn't worth buying, Aonghas had already told the people that we would buy it, so here's hoping it was a good purchase!
