I said that I hadn't spent much money on the car lately. I should have known better. Today I went to start it and nothing. Not a noise. Fewer lights than should come on, came on. In fact the "Service" light was half-on-half-off. This is absolutely positively not a good sign.

Used my recently acquired jumper cables (I tried beating it until it gave in) and still nothing. Some lights came on stronger, but no enginey noises.

I need a new car, but can't afford a new car, so end up spending money on the existing car which I could be putting towards a new car. This cycle is depressing and annoying, annoying and depressing and frankly all-round frustrating.

I'm compensating myself by eating chocolate from the Cadburys shop at Cheshire Oaks.

The last 24 hours of my twitterings and tweetings.

• 00:01 And it's even better cold :) #
• 00:13 Must get hold of Jason Mraz's latest album - loved the first two. #
• 09:34 What corporate world calls "customer service" is everything I hate about calling places. Just do it damnit, don't be nice and pally with me! #
• 13:33 Is someone taking the piss? My car's not starting, nothing at all happening. No noise, no lights. I'm going to just dump the thing soon. #
• 17:27 Sulking and attempting to get a decent backup working in Ubuntu, gave up on BackupPC - too complicated for me in my current state of mind. #
• 18:41 Given up on chocolate and moved on to jelly babies, the biting off of heads is oddly satisfying! #
