The 1,000km Service

I think the red in my hair is already starting to fade a little bit. Although Dru says it's still quite red if you look at it under the sunlight....

I booked my car into Ryde Toyota (cos that's where I got my car) last Wednesday and I sat in their reception area for 2 hours waiting for my car to get serviced and the review mirror panel on the left side looked at (more about this later). Well fair enough I was waiting since 7:30am and the boys don't even start working until 8am... I just sat there in their reception area knitting... and knitting and knitting and knitting! I almost finished a scarf by the time they finished with my car!

The panel where the left review mirror sits on had some white blotchy bits on it when I got it from the dealer, so I told the guy to have a look at it and see whether it needs replacing or something. He comes back and says 'Yeh the boys looked at it and just gave it a polish with *something something* and the blotches are gone! So it doesn't need to be replaced.'

Well, I get it home without checking it properly and when my dad had a look, he said he how come this other panel's a little scratched? Bloody hell, I knew I should've checked it before I left the place! So I brought it back on the Friday afternoon and the guy finally relents and said yeh ok, we'll order that in for you and when it comes in, we'll let you know and we'll replace it for you.

At least they're offering to replace it for me! :)

And no name for my car just yet, maybe she'll never get a name. Naming cars are a bit gay isn't it?.....

Helen's jetted off to Korea for the next 4 weeks or so, the lucky woman! She better bring back lots of photos of her trip over there!

This girl, she doesn't even let us know she's off on holiday until I try to make plans with everyone to meet up. She's like, 'Oh I can't make Friday.' And that's it! I had to ask her why not before she told me that she's going overseas!!

Although I guess when I made plans to go to Hong Kong in September last year, I told them just a week or so beforehand, but at least it wasn't a day or so before going away! We couldn't even meet up for dinner before she left *sigh*

We'll meet up whilst she's away anyway. Which reminds me, I need to start asking around about this upcoming weekend!
