Frustrations

I sent my dear car in for her long awaited air cond system fix up... and looking at the weather recently, its an essential part of owning a car in malaysia.... Horsepower aside, comfort is a major factor as well...

So yea..i sent her in on saturday.... and predictably i couldnt get her back on that day itself... theres some major reworking mind you....
On sundays the accesory shop doesnt work... and so i was informed that she'll be done by monday afternoon...of which i requested for a half day at work hoping to pick up charlotte by 1pm...
Heck, today is monday.... and i woke up this morning, greeted by the old and heavily influenced chinese - english accent of Mr.Tan, the owner of the accesory shop , informing me that my car wouldnt be ready by the afternoon and instead i had to pick it up after work....

So what a waste of half a days pay... Met my baby, kev and shane for lunch in a borrowed Daihasu Mira 660 a.k.a kancil which is owned by my aunty... Drove the little thing to work at 70kmh on the NPE and drove back eagerly hoping that i'd be able to pick charlotte up....

Unfortunately, my hopes came crumbling down when i called Mr.Tan at about half past seven.... Unfortunatly theres some welding work left to be done and only tomorrow will i be able to pick her up.... sigh...one mroe day of driving in the mira.... which i am extremely thankful for eventhough its one of the slowest cars ive driven... Heck, it brought me to work and back....with air conditioning as well...so why the heck am i complaining...

SO yea.... Hopefully ill be able to have her back by tomorrow night....


Frustations aside....
My trip to perhentian seems to be getting somewhere, we got essential info for our trip and i think we'll be abel to close all reservations by the weekend...although we'll need a credit card to do soem of the bookings.... so yea..anybody generous enough to lend a credit card...do let me know....
But of course ill pay you back...hahaha.... and sorry, no interest.... just asking a favour....

Oh yea..before i forget which i probably will.... Wynton's bday is coming up...so i think it'd be nice to wish him now....

HAPPY BIRTHDAY FATSO DESTRUCTO...


Btw...heres a video fo a murcielago doing a speed run...
Bear in mind that the Jun Skyline does 0-100 in 2.8 seconds.... so this is something...but slightly nothing....
