been reading the odd bit of the forums whilst on holiday but didn't reply as the keys were annoying me. arrived back couple of nights ago exhausted but crete and santorini were brilliant. Got some piccies i will post this week sometime. hired 3 different cars and the last one was a 107 which kept having issues. seemed to be heat related and intermittant. car would start running rough and we could not get the bugger back over the mountain roads back to the apartment. after turning it off for a bit all was well. it was not overheating but it felt like it would miss when it got hot. either way we got refunded and it made our last 3 days even more exciting than they were... albeit a tad streesful as we were 4 hours walk from phonebox, no ones stops for you and to top it off we were stuck in a valley and the car could not go over the mountains the way we came from or back home..... thankfully after leaving the car for 5 mins it started behaving long enough to get up the mountain road :bow:
decided to see Terminator salvation last night (big fan of the older movies) was a good movie and although it doesn't have the same feel of the older movies i still thought it was worth a watch.
Apart from that i started the car after nine days of being away and got the sticky lifter again. a careful drive to tescos for shopping had solved it so all good to go again :-)
i hope everyone has had a good week (last week) and a good weekend and may my return of posting commence :nana2:
