Default Beat this for a bad week

Unfortunatly my girlfriend miscarried our baby on Friday, on the same day driving home from the hospital the gearbox finally died on my SEAT, got her home and got a mate to drive me back to the hospital to collect her car, whilst driving that home the facking cam belt snapped chewing her clio engine to bits.

Then the next day the flat upstairs had a water leak ruining our newly decorated kitchen ceiling.


Brings a new meaning to a bad week

I thought I was having a bad week but has been put in prospective when reading your post.

Firstly sorry to hear the sad news hope your Partner is OK and I feel for you both. My wife lost four with her first husband after her first, but she managed to produce another so there is hope. Our thoughts are with you.
Hope you also manage to get the cars sorted with out too much trouble.

My bad news was Telly packed up last Thursday 29th, then Sat 3y/o car failed MOT earliest they car repair it 15th so no golf.
New TV arrived Monday broke-down (no sound) wed and engineer arrived today no fix and it is going to be 14 days before they could exchange it so sending back for full refund. Off to buy another make tomorrow as MOTO GP starts this weekend and can not miss it.
Health & Safety report arrived today with 5 issues requiring attention.

Seem insignificant to yours Sorry

Thanks, Jen seems to be coping OK, better than I could have hoped for TBH, the car situation is starting to get under control. I have already replaced the engine in the Clio, just need to give it a good service tomorrow and she is back on the road.

maybe luck is changing for the better, had confirmation of a big promotion at work today so things are looking up.
