Re: Burb went to the doc today...

GMC, I went to college in Madison! Well I partied in Madison - - -. I lived in the apartment across US 90 from the school, and we had a good time out at Cherry lake. Where did you take it? Rea Janes fried chicken, the hamburger joint across the street from our apartment OOOOOOOh . There usde to be a restored home on 90 that had a separate kitchen that was full of old antiques. Is it still there?

Re: Burb went to the doc today...

I must have missed the previous thread on you trouble shooting before having it towed. What do you think is wrong with it? Good luck, I've always been fond of your burb!

Re: Burb went to the doc today...

Don't be down hon! you did what ya had to, ya gave it your all trying to solve the issue...sometimes it's just bite the bullit time.
So are Goober & Doober far from you? and which one was driving the tow truck?

Re: Burb went to the doc today...

Geoff, lol, thank you sweetie, you mademe feel so much better! That was awesome darlin, thanks!

Doug, Its been an on going thing, its a starting issue. It grinds horribly when I try to start it.

Nigel, lol...Lord knows I did all I could. Im quite sure it was Doober, I dont mean to offend if this describes any one, but, though he was pleasant enough to talk to, the chew ring around the lower portion of his mouth, was quite nasty. I was sick frightened watching him try to go between thoes trees on the way out of my yard. (he hit one comming in) I had stressed to him, that there was not a scratch on it, and it better stay that way.

Im trying to be positive about the people working on it, they seemed capable, but...well you know.....Im gonna swing by there on my way to school, kind of a surprise attack. Hopefully Ill have an update for yall today!

thanks so much!
