Basically what happened was I went to the car and nothing..apparently the passenger door wasn't closed shut properly and the inside light must have been on .. so, after years of paying RAC and never calling them out I rang because I needed them to see if it had drained the battery and jump start the car and when I rang I was informed that even though I pay over ÂĢ80 a year I haven't got home start  I was absolutley fuming and told them I am cancelling tomorrow and going with green flag which is 30 quid cheaper and even gives you overnight stays and car rentals ..plus home start is on the basic one for 30 odd quid. Now I am going to have to call the garage out, I'm sure my Italian Stallion will do it for next to nothing and probably won't even charge, but for all the money I have paid out over the years I am fuming... Rac offered to add home start to my membership and pay the difference and then pay ÂĢ25 call out...I won't tell you what I said.

Fuming Baz  I called them out about 12 years ago with a battery problem and they came, and the guy even took me to Halfords for a new battery and then fitted it ...they have obviousley altered their membership plan and apparently I no longer have home start...I said 'what the fecking hell am I paying nearly ÂĢ90 a year for when I rarely do Motorway journeys' I am definitely going with Green Flag because they are far cheaper and I have heard excellent reviews about them. 

 

So for 12 years I have paid well over a grand and they couldn't send someone to jump start my car

So, have you got to go see your brother tomorrow instead ? Did Lynds get off ok ?

 

I will try tomorrow Baz, all depends if I have to wait for Roberto to come or he sends one of his mechanics out...it will be when he's got a minute probably. If he can't get to it tomorrow Lynds said to go to her house on the bus and take one of their cars. 

They left, Katie posted they  were on the plane but we've heard nothing since...I checked Palma landings and there's was on the arrivals board about twenty minutes ago so it must have landed.
