Kendo Feet

Make that beginner's kendo feet - the better you get, the less blisters you get. These come about by not moving your feet properly. Needless to say, I can't quite move my feet properly yet.

Took the car to the garage this morning as it was making a funny noise - then had to get the bus in to town from the very edge of Edinburgh. Finally got in to work for 10am, then got a call an hour or so later from the garage saying the car needs 450-quid worth of stuff done to fix the noise, and the front brake discs are worn and need replacing. 700-odd quid all in. Plus, the part they need for the car won't be in until tomorrow morning, which meant I had to go back down to the garage to collect a courtesy car. However, having had to fix an urgent problem at work, I ended up leaving a bit later than I should have, so had to get a taxi down to the garage in order to get there before the service department closed for the night.

Hopefully tomorrow will be a bit more successful.
