So I fire up the Motor in Mukdahan and blast out of town heading to Roi-et. On start up the battery was sluggish so I knew that it was only a matter of time before it fails.
Batteries do this, one second they are cranking away like a winner and the next minute they die, usually 2-3 years is the life span under normal operating conditions.
I had rented a Toyota Yaris for this trip, had 60K on the clock so just about spot on ready for battery failure. We get about an hour down the road when the Hand Bag wants to stop and grab some stuff for her Mum so I pull over.
When I go to start the motor the battery is foked, dead as a door nail, over and out job done. No big deal, just get Somchai to find a pair of jumper leads, fire it up, blast into Roi-et, get a Hotel, ring the hire company and get them to replace the Battery.
Easy innit ? Well it is very easy if one is not a foking retarded waste of space trying to tell me I've fuked the battery because I've been charging a smart phone in the car. Anyway, here is the car parked up at the " Roi-et City Hotel " the next morning with the foked battery still in place.
