Welcome to todays diary entry! It just keeps getting worse!! Whilst we were driving back from my sisters today we noticed a scraping noise at first we thought it was something in the sink or something rattling somewhere. At first we thought it was the tarmac making different noises whilst we drive over them, i couldn’t believe how different the noise is that can be made from different road surfaces. The A50 heading east bound past Stoke is one of those awful road surfaces and awful roads. IN fact it is one of the worst i ever have to drive on.
So when we worked out it wasn’t the road, and then emptied the sink and put lots of stuff on the carpet and the noise was still going. So by the time we made it to the shop i drove slowly and it sound awful. It was a scraping metal on metal sound. It didn’t sound good. We got parked up and I just felt the happiness drain from me. I could have almost cried, so here we go again another potential problem. What makes this worse is that we have stuff coming up in the coming weeks.

I have expressed my excitement about going to VLF fest next weekend and a little bit further on the horizon we have a week in south Devon in the middle of June as well. Taking in to account also that the Moho has its MOT and service booked in next Monday as well. It just seems to be costing me a lot of money at the moment and alongside not being paid by a previous company as well. It is just another thing to add to the list of absolute doom that seems to hitting the shores in wave upon wave upon wave.
They do say that is comes in threes so hoping that would be my radiator costing me more to repair than i was expecting, the laptop situation and now this. I will wait for a couple of the lads from the body shop to come in on Tuesday to see what they say. There are few people that I would trust to do anything with my motorhome and pretty much all of them are here. To be fair i owe them so much because it is almost daily when I am asking them questions about my motorhome. Asking them to look at things and asking them to give me some advice on something. So I am always grateful for there time. So i always try and get them a box of beers or something like that every now and then to keep them onside. To be fair it is coming around ot that time, i think next time i get paid i will pick a little something up for them.
