2011 - Day 196

[debris4spike]

As I left mum & dad's this morning there was a terrble screaching sound at the end of the road ... my brakes had died!  So I managed to go slow and steady to the Repair Place that I had the service done at in Feb ... and poorly car -



Looks a bit sorry for itself, doesn't it?

The screaching was metal on metal ... scary that I had not been aware that the pads were thinning, until they had gone.

Still all OK now ... another bill, no work ... but I got a couple of letters written this afternoon and can (hopefullY play catch-up on LJ this evening.
