This isn't really a discussion, more letting off steam in case I do a mischief to my Partner. I have had a rough week, I have an illness which makes me dizzy and clumsy and I have managed to break two bones in my foot, almost rip a nail out and scald my stomach. However, the over riding concern has been that HE has lost the MOT form for the car and it HAS to be done by the end of May. Definitely May. Definitely he has not got them. So I have been hunting high and low for them. Today they turned up in the glove compartment of the car. Now, I wonder who could have put them there???? Oh and the MOT is due on the 136th of May - yup that's right 13th September! I've said it before and I will say it again. M-E-N!!!!!

Oh dear! I can see your aura itching to ding ears! May can be a very long month, sure it's not his tax running out although he perhaps thinks with the broken foot and sore tummy you cannot chase him. I'm sure if he keeps bugging you there'll definately be some running soon! M ade E ntirely N asty

Well the MOT really is due now and they are still humming and hawing over what needs to be done, so the more it changes, the more it stays the same. Yup, I often itch to ding ears but my partner has the sense to be nearly a foot taller than me so I can not reach. Yet another of life's little aggravating things . . .

Amazing how the 5'2" club picks tall men isn't it but a well placed kick in the shins brings them down to a good levelfor a ding, as I'm sure Shrek-Gimli will tell you, lol. My other problem like that is the hand on top of the head can't reach choos what I try syndrome which is really frustrating and always makes me think of the crankies. Have fun sorting th car out - if you ever get all of the paperwork at the same time...

I have put the definition of the MOT and a link which tells you all about the various things that have to be right to poss this test. If the vehicle does not pass it can not be driven, so it is important to get it right, and it costs money for every test so if it fails again more expense. I hope you enjoy the web page on the various things they do to make up the test! It is Ministry of Transport - but they are usually used to describe the MOT test - a test of vehicle safety. It is now administered by VOSA (Vehicle and Operator Services Agency). In the motor trade the MOT is known as the ticket - RFL or road fund license (tax disk) is called the rent http://www.motester.co.uk/cog.html

Yup, in this context there is a 136 of May! He will NEVER organise the glove compartment. I am just thankful it is not as large as my handbag and he is limited as to how much he can stash in there.
