I am carless yet again. This time it was just how things had to happen.
When the trader that I bought Pepe from had the cambelt changed, it was discovered by the garage that there was an oil leak. So, I got the car a little later, so they could finish the necessary repairs. Apparently, it was not all fixed. The first weekend we had the car we figured out really quickly by the puddle under the car that there was still a leak. So, in the meantime I drove Super Handsome’s car and had my loverly minor fender bender.... GAH!
Note the park job! Super Handsome had given me a hard time earlier in the day about my parking, I said fine, you drive! We all laughed hysterically when we looked at his handy work. It was while we admiring his skills that we noticed there was a puddle of oil under Pepe!
Yesterday, Pepe went in to get his leak taken car of and in the process of fixing him, the garage broke the ABS senor off! Oh bummer! So, the garage needed to keep Pepe. They had to order the sensor and put it back on.
Today the kids and I just spent the day doing virtually nothing. They did some required exercise and played some video games.
In other news, the trader that I bought the used Nissan from has agreed to give me a refund. I went to the garage where it is currently sitting with all the paperwork and keys and asked them to make arrangements for the car to be towed to the trader. The trader has the right to inspect the car before they refund me the money. They also asked for the car, keys, and all the paperwork to be returned to them as part of the refund. So, I think that it should be delivered tomorrow! Then, if all goes as I expect, the trader will send me a refund in the mail.
Which brings me back around to the point that I desperately need to open a UK bank account still! Ugh! That will have to wait until this weekend. I just realized that Super Handsome left his birth certificate in the US and I am pretty sure he needs it to open a bank account with me, doh!

| Pepe! You are as crowded into this spot so ‘tightly’, another car your size could almost fit behind you! |
