I had so much planned for today - no mindees and mum was looking after my dd so I was going to try and catch up on paperwork and washing :rolleyes:
Dh phoned and said his fan belt broke on the way to work this morning so he had to leave his car there and catch the train home and will try and fix it tomorrow.
I decided to pop up to the supermarket garage for diesel and on the way back was unable to change gear - stuck on 3rd. :panic: My car has now gone to the garage and he will look at it but says if it's what he thinks it is then it could be expensive. So we have 2 cars which have both broken down on the same day!
To top it all off my dad had gone over to a friend's workshop to help him with something and dad fell backwards off a ladder late this afternoon. His friend took him to the local surgery as his hip was hurting and he had chest pains (has angina) - they sent him to the local a & e for an x-ray and it was showing a line on it so they've sent him to the main hospital for a more detailed x-ray.
We're waiting to hear if he needs collecting tonight or if he's being admitted. The hospital is 20 miles away and my mum doesn't like driving in the city at the best of times, let alone in the dark so I'll have to go with her. Just hope he hasn't done anything serious.
They say things happen in three's so hopefully all will be well now! I also have a load of wet towels as it started to rain just as my washing was about to finish it's cycle :rolleyes:
