A couple of days ago, I was riding home from afternoon tea with my girls, when my trike began making horribly loud clicking noises.
I tried changing the gears up and down a few times, to no effect. I tried hitting the brakes hard a few times, to no effect. I called Adoring Husband outside to check it over, to no effect.
It wasn't the gears, it wasn't the brakes and it wasn't the wheels.
So we decided to book it in for a check up (it was only serviced about two months ago).
We were given 8.30am as our appointment time and the young man suggested that he usually arrived at work early, so there wouldn't be a problem.
A different young man arrived to open the shop at 9.05am!! Not happy Jan!!
While we waited for the trike to be checked, Adoring Husband and I decided to go to the movies.
The movie that we saw is now on my list of 'Top 5 Worst Movies of all Time'.
It was 'Rise of the Planet of the Apes'. Ugh!! Don't go there!!
The best part of the movie was the vanilla, macadamia nut, choc top ice cream that I had for breakfast during the previews before the movie started.
Turned out there was nothing wrong with the trike and the clicking disappeared the second we took it off the trailer to wheel it into the shop.
At least he only charged us $10 to tell us that information.
We all enjoyed completing the Census form tonight!
It seems that Vegan Chickie and I both share a secret ... we enjoy filling out official forms!
It's no longer a secret :o)
Just to sneak one little photo in for the day. This one was taken Sunday morning, right on the turn of the tide, when the water was very still.

What started out as an average day has finished up as a pretty great day!!
Nite all.
