I was on a lesson this afternoon prepping the pupil for my check test tomorrow. Going down a 60 mph single carriageway she went 1st, 2nd not 3rd thrust him into 1st again at 25 mph. Bumble did not like that and after he would not engage a gear.He would stationary but not with the car running.

I got a cab for my 7 month pregnant pupil and declined payment for the lesson. Recovery american style left hand drive cab turned up and diagnosed gear selector. Ouch that sounds expensive. As usual, no coat, stupid footwear but at least I had my walking stick. Car at Cooper Croydon awaiting verdict.

My check test paperwork says not having a car is not an excuse so I don't know what I can do. I will ring them tomorrow at 8 and explain. I'm upset because I was looking forward to my test and hoping for an improved grade.

I kept getting a premonition around LGT that I was going to endure a breakdown but I thought it would be Krakatoa.

It's clutch. £2,076 that's painful. Apparently a flywheel is involved at £600 plus VAT. Still cheaper than if I had bought a new car.

The car was supposed to be ready today but I got a 7am text to say they cannot get a flywheel til early next week. My pupils are going to get fed up with me at this rate.
