Day started off crap, got up later than I wanted to, kids got up even later, battery on the car knackered and my battery booster thing wouldn't boost. After getting the car going hitched the trailer up only to find one indicator not working. went to parents to pick some stuff up and car needed jump starting again. Found the dog kennel roof had rotted so will nee to fix that, but the rest is ok.

Went to Halfrauds for a battery as I had a gift card with some money on it. Left the car running so it wouldn't need another jump start. Took ages at the till as the tills kept on crashing, BUT instead of the till taking all the £29.75 from the gift card off the £79.99 price it doubled the value of the gift card leaving me £20.49 to pay. Four of the till monkeys came to see if they could sort it, but couldn't so in went my card and I only had to pay the £20.49 saving myself £29.75. All the could say was Merry Xmas.

A win for me at last. Mind you knowing my luck something negative is going to happen big time.

Heres a tip - Get hold of a Halfords trade card. That battery would have been £40 instead of £80.
