Lost Weekend
So yeah... what have I been up to since I last blogged?
Good question. I took Friday off. I seem to remember shopping for Jessica's birthday present. And then it's kind of a black hole. I must have eaten, I think I tidied the house for a bit, watched some telly, played World of Warcraft, but that's about it. The whole weekend was a bit of a dull blur. Ho hum.
I suppose on the plus side I wasn't spending money. I'm trying to save now for a holiday in Barcelona next month. Should be awesome!
This weekend will be better, it's Jessica's birthday barbeque at Soph's place. A chance to meet up with some old friends and stuff. Although there'll be quite a few trannies there, I'm not sure whether I'll do it dressed. Being outdoors in hot weather (hopefully) and eating copious amounts of meat isn't conducive to cross-dressing.
My car is behaving slightly oddly, which is worrying. I can't pin it down yet, but it seems to jolt a bit more than it should when I go over bumps, and the steering wheel sometimes shudders slightly at the same time. I'm not very mechanical, so I'm not sure what to look at. I'm pretty sure if I take it to the garage with my vague symptoms the diagnosis will be one word: "expensive". So hoping to avoid that in the short term.
I'll use the technique beloved by all IT support people. Switch it off and on again, and hope for the best.

Re the car etc.
Depending how old it is and how many miles it's done, probability #1 is the dampers (or 'shock absorbers' as the garage people insist on calling them...)
When it's standing in the street, nip out and heave down on it above one wheel and let go. If it comes back to level nicely, it's OK. If it bounces up and down more than once before stopping, the dampers are toast.
Hope it's not to expensive.

Could be your wheel bearings, does it rattle on one side as you go around corners too? Or at a particular speed then its your wheel bearings
If anyone could fix it for free too, I'd be very grateful! :)
