Should be gaming now, in fact.
Except the car wouldn't start; the oil pressure warning light came on. So within a week of my costly new insurance policy starting, within a week of the documents arriving from the DVLA to confirm the car is mine, and within 2 weeks of the annual service and MOT, I have a serious problem, and a potential need to invoke the home assist clause in the breakdown cover.
Joy.
The worst part is that it has happened on a Wednesday so I miss a week's gaming (but then it would; I don't use the car much - or indeed at all - on other days of the week), and a Wednesday before a weekend which might also (otherwise?*) have been chock full of gaming goodness. Not fun, and more aggravation and Stuff To Think About (tm) to add to career (hah!) ideas and financial decisions.
Still, things should prove solvable, if at a price.
And now I need to think about something positive to post to boot!
* It may still, regardless of whether or not the issue is fixed in time, but the potential loss gets my goat right now!

Good news; it seems last night was the car being temperamental in the cold, wet, weather, as it started alright when I tried this evening.
The bad news is living in the UK, in the onset of winter... such weather will be frequent. Also, the petrol station on the corner is shut and I'm dangerously low; should be enough to get to the pumps at Sainsbury's on Saturday morning though.
