Strutter-The Donnas

it was a bright sunny sunday evening,we had just attended a wedding reception and the scooter joined a long queue down TM1 shopping centre heading down towards the free-motorcycle carpark and midway i switched off the engine,as i thought i would save a lil energy on the scoot but was very,very surprise as we approached the gantry,the bloody scooter won't start as i pressed the ignition button.

we were truly stunned and practically lost for words,and that really ruined our beautiful sunday.i didn't really know what to do then,we went to get our stuffs and got back to the information desk and informed the guest officer if it was alright if we leave the stalled scooter overnight and the tow truck to rescue it the next day.the lady made a couple of phone calls and replied that they need my particulars and contact no and still with a friendly smile she said it's ok for us to leave it there,but just to ensure that it'll be removed the next day.

just my luck,i guess.

so i took the public transport to work today,armed with shades and headphones plugged to the psp.it wasn't that bad,only the burning sun that i can't definitely ignore though i tried as much to avoid the sun rays but it didn't help much.

and after work,head all the way down to the workshop again.so they've fixed my scoot and the old man mechanic was apologising still making me feel rather awkward,well it's not his fault anyway.and they only made me pay the towing fee but the rest of it Free Of Charge.
being thankful,i left the workshop with a sheepish grin and a slight nervousness...well i was just afraid that it might go dead halfway to home.but it didn't,just like the mechanic's assurance,"Sam i've checked through,it's the wiring to the magnetic coil which caused the fault."

but i somehow doubt him.and we already making plans of replacing the scoot.but deep down it's really hard for me to part with her.

how now brown cow?should i get another scooter?a vespa would be cool......
