Mechanic just phoned me. They have had a cancellation of a booking for tomorrow and can fix my car then. It might even be possible to make a start today.
@matigo Missed out on that: it’s good for three months OR 5,000 km: I’d exceeded the latter.
@matigo It’s only new to me. It’s 5.5 years old and has traveled over 140,000 km in that time. She previous owner must have been a right bastard of a driver to get it into that state.
My older sister is visiting Mum for a few days, she’s over from Western Australia, several hours flight time away.
I had planned to visit today, but the noise from the transmission as I eased the car into reverse put paid to that idea.
I hope to get it to the mechanic tomorrow, may have to leave it with them for a week due to demand.
Car’s playing up. Clutch seems to be fuct. Might be enough meat left on it to travel the 900m to the mechanic’s workshop. Don’t know when they’ll have time to work on it, though.

@hybotics What happens to Charlie in the meantime? Is she being looked after? Get well soon, Dale.
My spare cellphone’s 365-day call/data pack ran out today, so I recharged it. I felt 42 BG of data was reasonable last year, only used 34 GB.
This time I’m an existing customer so I get 48 GB.
Blast & bloody damn it. Last night’s brushcutting & chainsawing plus rubbish removal has strained my bad shoulder.
@hazardwarning My limited understanding of the salted caramel trend was as a chocolate enhancer.
