My R & R.

Looks a lovely place where you went glad you had a lovely time, sorry to hear of your brake failure, have you checked no leaks in brake fluid or could of been pads over heating and water on them. I would get them checked if I was you. I have had this but nothing even when I pumped them, so I had to change down quickly as there was a car in front and the lights were on red when aproching traffic lights, so I quickly changed down into 2nd and headed for the curb opposite lucky nothing was comming the other way , then I pulled the hand brake slowly till it was right up the kerb stopped me, then from there I called my son he was in frount taking it back to his house, for repair I drove it all the way without brakes, found out all the brake shoes had worn away, so never rely on mots, as an mot only stands legal for the day and time it was going through the mot.

Glad you enjoyed your R & R... :o)

Thanks Sixpence. Yes I enjoyed myself. The car will be going in to my local garage to be checked over as soon as I can get it booked in. I must admit it was rather frightening at the time, and lucky it was a quiet time of the day.

Thanks TT. Nice to have a break.

Glad you had a lovely time on Hayling Island, even with out the car. Now you are back we will have to arrange that return visit.

Thanks. We will indeed.

Thanks Sandra, it was lovely, and went all too quickly really. Have an awful lot to catch up with on this site, but will do that over the next few days. Hope you are all ok. lol..

Glad you had a great time in Hayling Island Cinderella. Wow glad you didn't come to any harm in your car. take care my friend ;-)

Welcome home :o) lol and glad to hear you had a nice break.
I hope your car gets mended soon . They can be a nuisance when they go wrong .

Thanks Richard, and Hywel. Yes it was abit scary with the car, but I am home safely, and just going to see about the car. Hope it won't turn out to be too expensive. I did enjoy the break away though. Like the new Avatar Hywel.

Thank you Clarice.

Scary when things like that happen, thank goodness it wasn`t any worse Cinderella..
Lovely photo`s, pleased you had a good time.....

Thanks Lincslass. It was a bit scary

Welcome back, although we live in Hampshire have never got as far as Hayling Island,bit scary your brakes going like that, still thank goodness you are all in one piece.glad you enjoyed your break....

Thanks for your nice comments Dotty. As a child we used to holiday there most years, so I feel a little sentimental about it really. Yes my brakes going like that was scary. It is booked into the local garage for Tuesday. But thats not the end of it. This morning I have a crack in the windscreen which wasnt there yesterday, so I am wondering what will be the third thing now !! Still as you say I am all in one piece.

Oh dear, dont you just hate it waiting for the third thing to happen.....

Ah well, look on the bright side, it might not happen. lol...

You might even get a taste for the bus, at least you can sit and chat without having to watch the roads as well, but O.K. perhaps not. Its the time it takes!

I m always disapointed when I have to click twice to get a comment in!
makes me feel as though I'm dong it wrong............again

Yes I do occasionally use the old bus pass, but you can't beat the car really. It is the time factor if you want to travel any distance, though we do have a good Park and Ride here. Join the club Sandygirl !!!!....

Pleased you enjoyed your break at Hayling Island. We used to have a caravan sited at' Fishermans Creek' there a few years ago and often took our grand~daughter there. We also used to meet up with friends who also had a caravan on another holiday site and have a great chin~wag. It was lovely. We havent visited the Island for a few years now,~ we have the sea and beaches on our doorstep now as we are now in Suffolk.~ Happy Gardening Cinders.

Thanks Lin, I love it down there at Hayling, especially where we were staying, it was so quiet. As a child we always went there as we used to have an aunt & uncle that had a caravan they used to hire out there. Happy memories. You are lucky to have the sea so near.
Happy gardening to you too.

Thanks Cinders :o))
