Title: such a good day
Post by: stainesy on 18 October 2012, 20:52

ok as some of you no i have been out of work since last xmas. so have been skint.
i had my much loved jetta on ebay that was ending today. really didnt want to sell her but my wife was making me as we have 5 kids and need a 7 seater and no job to save up for one so the jetta had to go.
so woke up this morning thinking great no job xmas coming up and selling my baby. bloke rang me up an decide he is defo having the jetta and will come and collect sunday.
so theres me thinking the world hates me and i have to give up my pride and joy.  :cry:

then sudenly get a phone call from a bloke called spike that runs a workshop called house of dub (where my car won a show an shine competition a month ago) saying he wants me to go work for him restoring and making interiors and pretty much everything to do with air cooled VW's. and the wife has now said keep the jetta as you will need it for work and i can now save for a 7 seater.

so just want to say WoooooooooooooooooHoooooooooooooooooo.
i have just got the job of my dreams and get to keep my pride and joy. in the famous words of ice cube, today was a good day  :grin:
