A series of unfortunate events
Ok this story is pretty long so bear me out...
First, the battery in my car(citroen) konked out. Then i tried my dad's car(camry) but it was also weak from not being driven for 1 week. So i got jude to help me jumpstart it and my car and we drove the respective cars around to charge the battery. My dad's car turned out alright, but the battery only lasted a few days for my car. I brought it to the workshop for a full charge but 1 week later it totally died. I just finished a long day at work but when i tried to start my car all i heard was "click...click". I got my friends to help me jump start it and on my way home, the car felt really bumpy. After I parked the car i saw that the tyre was flat! I looked for the spare tyre on my car but it was missing...I think the previous owner took it out and didn't put it back! So i drove my dads car for a few days and then suddenly one morning, i discover that 1 of the tyres was totally flat and another was halfway flat. So I changed the flat one to the spare and pumped up the other one. That night, after watching football at sri hartamas till around 1:30, i discover that the halfway pumped up one is now totally flat! This time I jacked up the car, took the two flat tyres and with the help of a friend, brought them to the petrol station to pump. The first petrol station we wanted to go to had a line as long as the great wall...so, we went to another one but the air pump was closed. We then went all the way to damansara heights to pump up the tyres and fit one of them back to the car. The next morning, that tyre was flat so i changed it with the other pumped up tyre. I took the flat tyre from my car(the citroen) as well as the other flat car from my dad's car and then went to the closest workshop from my house, by the time i got there it was totally flat. The mechanic check the tyres and told me that they were irrepairable as the damage was to the sidewalls which cannot be patched up. He said that they were most probably stabbed by someone! So I had to replace the tyres at 310 each. My own tyre was 180. After getting that sorted out, I took a battery from a friend who had a new battery he hadn't used. I installed that into my car and everything worked fine! yahoo! Until i tried to close the bonnet and found out that the battery was too big and I couldn't close the bonnet...
So tomorrow i will be battery shopping and hopefully get this series of unfortunate events out of the way...
