Well... its now Hump day.... and i still havent told you all about the weekend!
We awoke on Saturday morning to find a message on my mobile saying they had found some of my property in Tech Park!!!!
I knew straight away what thayt meant... Jamie's car had been broken into... sure enough... when we went out to have a look, the windscrean had been cracked, rear passenger window had been smashed, and things were strewn everywhere!
GREAT!
Was supposed to be out in hornsby at an appointment with Hornsby Honda, but alas... more pressing things to do... i spoke with Jamie, insurance, Police, Repairers etc... till i thought i had it as sorted as i could get it, then got in the car and headed out to hornsby and artarmon Honda's.
When we arrived at honda Artarmon - a nice guy said he would assess our car, so we told him where it was, and went in and had a look around... 10 mins later he came up and said sorry - they couldn't help us, out car was only worth about 5000! so i said fine, and we walked out... we then pushed on to Honda Hornsby where some gruff man took one look under the bonnet, said that the car had been poorly repaired from an accident, and that he wouldn't touch it! - hmmm... had just picked it up from the repairers...
GREAT again....
so we drove back to Alex, and walked over to Tech Park to find my stiff. When i got there i found that all my skrewdrivers had been pinched, and all my CAEC web design business stuff was all wet, and looked like it had been pissed on! My tax ledgers, My hours ledger... everything!!!
depressed we walked back to the house feeling a bit desperate and funky from the day! Lee then decided it was tiem for the dreads to come off, with a bit of encouragement from meags, and so we manned ourselves with scissors... and voila!
god she looks cute!
after much stressing with the car, and jamie deciding not to go through his insurance, we ended up with a bill for %50 ($250.00)of the repairs to jamies car... and i will have to go out and buy new tools for work!!!
Depressing...
Sunday morning we headed out to have brunch with Anita at Bills2 for her birthday! which was nice... we did a little shopping... went to broadway, got some style cut into lee's freshly short hair... then headed home to relax!
I took our car in to our Mechanic on Monday to see what our mechanic thought of our cars repairs! He said it looked ok, but there were a few shoddy things, so we got in touch with the insurance company for our car, and organised for an assessment - that happened today, and it looks likte the car will have to go back to the shop!
The Honda Vultures rang from Artarmn - and asked how we had gone... we told him that we had seen some niceish guy, and that he had had our car assessed and that he had told us it was a no go. The guy then said he would check it all out and talk to us about it... finally when he got back to us, he said that the guy had never had it assessed, he was pulling our leg... and that it was all a ploy to drive our trade in price down..... he had lied to us, and wasted our time.
The NRMA assessor says that the car is worth between 8-12... but because it has no air, more likely 8-9... thats fine with us, we only owe 8 on it, so thats fine! Looks like we will have to sell it privately - as we seem to get taken for a ride everytime we speak to used car dealers! GREAT!
HOW DO YOU LIKE 'EM APPLES!!! HUH? HUH?
