Too cool for subject

You know, every time something like this happens to me I just think "perhaps it happend this way exact for the reason that I wouldn't do something I had planned to do". *g* And reading words like "hurricane" and "drive across the moors" I have to say, this kind of thinking doesn't strike me as too silly in this context. ;-)

Yes, a flat car battery is a pretty annyoing thing but better it happened before you started than having your car dying while in the midst of your drive.

In a hurricane.

While driving across the moors.

*g* The question is, *why* was the battery flat at all? Did you leave something turned on, is there some short-circuit that's sucking your battery empty while you're not looking or is it the dynamo that fails to provide energy to keep the battery filled up?

Heh heh. Yeah... it's beautiful out there today. A gorgous day for driving 'cross country. Though, to my mind, there's nothing like t' moors in the teeth of a gale. ::G::

Hmmm. I see where you're coming from, though it's more Wuthering Heights than anything else up here. (o:

As per the battery; it's happened before. The AA man couldn't tell what happened either time, but we're starting to suspect the GPS unit. We've started disconnecting it, anyway, in the hope that solves the problem.

Oh me too. My mother rolls her eyes in a meaningful way and says; "it wasn't meant to be." ::G::
