Today we got up early again to ring the Tunisian Embassy but they basically said 'nuts to you, 3 weeks' and that was it. There is no emergency visa or anything, so it was pretty much settled that it wasn't going to happen. So we tried to going to Thomson and seeing about going elsewhere but without the main booker (which was Ron) we could do basically nothing without paying out virtually the price of the holiday again for something new.
So we gave up on the that and decided to head to Hooty's, in Bilston. We weren't sure of the way but got there pretty easily and with no problems from the mini, and we decided to look around the market as we found it first XD We got this and that from there, some presents and some mushrooms too XD They just looked good.
When we came back to the mini it just wouldn't start. Tony pushed it to bump it with the help of another guy, and someone else tried connecting it to thier cars' battery but it wasn't having any of it and sat there quite dead. Once it was shoved into a quiet corner of the car park we rang the AA. Luckily Tony has AA cover with his bank account.
We waited ages for the guy in the freezing car and he took just as long if not longer to fix it, turned out to be the coil. (Whatever that does) Apparently he was very good and methodical according to Tony, but I just sat in the car freezing until he was done and the bloody thing ran again.
We got home with the mini running like a little dream car and had veges and fish for tea with Dad nom nom nom x3
And we never got to Hootys XD
