Title: over due... opps
Post by: Xplicit 2.0 on 15 March 2010, 14:16:14
Yeh, seems the MOT on my mig was due 5 days ago... so i have phoned round and called round all the local places to try my luck on it being done today and found one that said they will do there bets to fit mine in today.

To top it all off my amp arrived whilst i was dropping the mig off (those who have read my help needed post will know whats going on) meaning i cant go fit it.

i hate having a new toy/gadget and not being able to use it >_<  :D :D ;D ;D

Too easy to miss the mot.

will only cost them for a bit of paper and a few few printers that can mass print like 1000 sheets a minute or something... As said its all computerised now everything can be done for this task on a simple macro... but ah well, im just lucky VOSA didnt catch me as i hav noticed an increase in them doing checks

There's a little "pull off" bit on your MOT that you can stick on your windscreen as a reminder ???

Or should someone from the ministry phone you and say ..

breathe in ........  breathe out ....... breathe in .......... breathe out  ...

Road tax/VED is in the window all year, but you get a reminder about that. And I still forgot to tax the Omega's this year, I remembered about a week late!  :-[

haha... done and done  :y i remember when i was a nipper (about 5) i had a Grommet put in my ear (cant ever work out which side as my hearing is very selective) after waking from having it done i was scared sh*tless when i heard a very very loud roaring rumble... turns out it was a lorry driving past the hospital ;D ;D
