A good servicing

I just had the cab serviced a few days ago. I was two thousand two hundred miles over the service mileage but I managed to bullshit my way through it (again!) and so have warranty for another six months. It was only a small service so apart from suspension bushes and a tyre only came to £180. The actual suspension is still completely knackered though but there's nothing that can cure that other than a complete new suspension or a gallon of petrol and a match!! I'm still working all the hours under the sun to haul myself out of the mire and it's pretty tough going. The last few nights have seen my going over to the hotels surrounding ExCeL a good few times but last night was complete nightmare as the Limehouse Link was closed and the traffic was backed all the way into The Highway and my French punter was bleating at the meter ticking relentlessly upwards. (got to dash out, i'll complete this later)
