Car has been dropped at the mechanic, now to chill (aka freak out because what IF something is magically wrong with it) for a few hours since old mate reckons it'll be done by 12pm.
I really need a coffee. I was confused why you dropped your cat at the mechanic...
I've decided he needs an occupation and to start contributing to the bills.
My cats are good mousers. 👍
The check purrgine light is on

something ain't right with that back end.
what car have you got?
Mitsubishi Pajero NT 09 (diesel). She's as clean as a whistle (apart from needing a suspension upgrade), just put her in for a once-over before the big holiday driving starts. Usually, I do something like this myself, but my calendar is a little full at the moment, and to be honest, I felt like being lazy.
Pajero? Duuuude there is nothing wrong with a Pajero! Ever. They are the Corolla of 4x4's. My old man had one for 20 years, abused the shit out of it. Still ran no worries with over 350,000k on the clock, and that was the petrol version. The only time your mechanic is gonna call you and say something is wrong with a diesel pajero will be "sorry bananafungus, it needs a new starter motor because the old one was SLIGHTLY singed in the heat death of the universe"
Oh yeah, like I'm not actually worried, just silly over thinking brain doing it's thing.
I've already put two thousand k's on her since I picked her up a few months back, honestly find the ride more comfy then some of the Patrols my Dad had.
