Package holidays have been whittled down to the bare minimum, the last 15 years has seen every sense of luxury or being special eroded, for the love of God they dont even crack over a bag of sweets for the descent, and yes I know cabin pressure is regulated far better than it was in the past.I usually ask the same question after travelling back from a Thomas Cook holiday. I don't expect to be treated differently from anyone else, just differently in terms of far better.
Easy if you know a good mechanic , take jump leads and either put them on the main starter feed or alt , whichever is easiest to get on, them unlock car. SimplesHow about this puzzle.
My Mondeo has keyless entry and start.
Tried opening my car door with my keyfob to find that it didn't.
Tried the spare and that didn't work either.
Thinking the keyfob battery was flat I replaced it. Still no joy.
I confirmed the battery was okay by putting it into the Mrs keyfob in her company car.
Thinking now that the cars battery is flat, or that the programming on the fob is lost due it's flat battery (unlikely)
Here's the kicker. Inside the keyfob there should be an emergency blade key to open the door. Both my fobs are empty.
My AA cover I got free with my last service ran out at the end of Feb.
I've an auto locksmith coming tomorrow. The only good news is that he didn't turn up as promised today so they offered to cut me a blade for free.
Thing is without being able to get in the car I couldn't get to the bonnet release catch.Easy if you know a good mechanic , take jump leads and either put them on the main starter feed or alt , whichever is easiest to get on, them unlock car. Simples

Done loads for the ambulance service, the amount that stop dont turn lights n stuff off ,come out of a patiants to find all flat( nearly put dead) and call me out to sort it. Happy ya done though
Starter is on the bottom main feed isnt an issue again, tgats what a jack is forDifficult on a mk4 Mondeo alt at the top and so is the battery and it's so much lower than a van
Probably the only thing I remember from University is that a can of Coke (full fat) in the morning is a perfect hangover cure.Had half a bottle of wine last night and today I suffered from it.
Didn't make things any better that I had a meeting with the hipsters at Google HQ here in Silicon Valley.
Ugh.
