The van wouldn’t start …..

So we were going to a local pub for fodder before going to the airport …..it wouldn’t start. We went out in it yesterday and it was fine. Usually we would be in the car as the van is really the work vehicle for The Mister, but , daughter has problems with her car and has borrowed his to get to work and get the Grandchildren to and from school. The van does play up if left for four or five days, but obviously that hasn’t happened as we have only had the van to get around since before Christmas. No idea what’s going on with it….no time to investigate. Anyway, only a 10 minute walk to the pub so we were happy to do that.

At least you got some exercise, but didn’t have to sweat for it!

At least the pub is close by if you feel like getting snockered with a bite to eat.

I hope lunch was delicious!

Walking is very good for health. And I think it is safe not to use the van until you have inspect it well and fix it well. God bless.

Cars can be cranky sometimes.

Hope you had a good meal and don't need the van to get to the airport.
