My mum’s car was broken. £750 of mechanic fees later, turns out it was a broken key

Mine was, unfortunately, a bit more complicated.
A valve in the engine disintegrated, and destroyed the pistons, the camshaft, the crankshaft, the mine shaft, the drive shaft, the thread shaft, the spark plugs, the oil pump, the gas pump, the water pump, the thingummy, the wotsit, the dinglybittle, the thropostratoscat, and God only knows what else.
It probably ended up at about £2,500. Still, I took it for a run this morning and it's just like new .
Cheaper than a new car, which starts at about £30,000.

I think as you were reluctant to go off work I'll say wow BRILLIANT but really (for myself) I want to say oh dear poor you

It is a return to normality, mundane as it sounds, an ordinary life is all I want after the last few months.
