today has gotta be a pretty crap day... where to begin
first I my boss kit and snap off boss kit in the post, so I open them all excitied at my new toys, only to find all the instructions are in chinese/japenese/mayalsian... etc
So anyway, that wasnt that bad, cos ive got a book somwhere which features stuff like that, so anyway, I ordered a NISMO style steering wheel (the one me and Nex were discussing a few weeks back) and it was waiting for me in the depot... or so I thought... turns out the Van had been stolen the day of the failed delivery and they had no idea where my parcel was... and considering it was shipped from the USA via Fedex and then onto this other parcel company... they didnt have a clue what to do... so they took my number and said they'd call me tomorrow.
So anyway, onto the Junkyard where I was getting some parts for the car, I collected all the parts id wanted and my mate Igor (who works there) gave me a price for them all, then I said i wanted one more thing which he got for me and said I could just have it... then as I was leaving the people behind the cash desk accused me of stealing the parts and it wasnt until Igor had explained to them (and you can guess by the name his english is somewhat limited) that id paid for the parts and the other ones were cosmetically damaged and were to be given away. So after all the appoliges and stuff I was on my way into town.
Then it got worse... I was parked in the car park in my actual car fishing round in the glove box for my wallet and etc, then a car pulls up beside me (Ford Focus GT Sport 06 Plate) and there was a mother and her two kids, the little kid flung his door open straigh into my car door, while I was actually sitting in it, scraping the paint, and then I say to the mother look what her child has done, suddenly its my fault and she starts having a go at me...
so all in all... a bit of a ####e day to be honest, at least I didnt get the gear surround fitted, which ill post up soon.
