It's all wind-rushed and gloriously spinning-tumbling-world outside today, and I was up and out early to take Little Car to the (yuck) Dealership garage, but then I walked through the ploughed fields and past whirling thistle-heads and bicycles-being-reclaimed-in-streams, and finally had coffee and read lovely lyrical fic, and now... I'm not sure what sort of a mood I'm in, but I might be in the mood to write something... something. But I'm not sure what, so...

Does anyone have a prompt for me? Something random and wonderful and... oh, something? There might be Pros from it... *g*

Ooh, what a lovely idea! I've started the Tunnel of Love one, but if I get a bit of a shift on, and manage some focus amongst everything else... And mmmn, I do know what you mean about hurt-Doyle, suitably comforted... *g*

Lyrical fic was actually a Torchwood fic - sorry... I know, I know... That's something I'm liking about TW stories though, the good ones often are very lyrical, and/or very thought-provoking and philosophical as well as everything else... This one was C12H220, and I loved the idea of Jack smelling like bright water and electricity, because yes! But you probably don't want to know that... *g*

I'd like some lyrical Prosfic too... I wonder if we can think of some between us... Maybe it could be my Pros-post for today, and other people will join in and rec some for us!

Little Car, according to Dealer Garage, may have issues with her Mixture regulation auto-adaptation function (her choke, presumably...), her Inlet manifold pressure sensor function or her mixture regulation function. Which is pretty much what Garage said, so if that's all the Official Dealership Diagnostic Computer can come up with for £40+ then I am definitely not impressed! But I'm hoping it's narrowed things down by way of not saying Catalytic Converter, for example... *g* And I'm really hoping that just means perhaps the points are bit grubby or summat like that... *g* Of course Dealer Garage also gave me a list of a billion other things that were wrong with little car, only two of which were reported by Garage, one of which was massively exaggerated (the rear light is working, they just need to adjust the earths) and one of which is almost certainly untrue because I just had the tracking done not long ago, and I've not noticed it pulling... So grrrrr Dealership Garage... Also, they impressed me by saying that they'd give Little Car a quick wash as part of the service, and then they didn't, so... just gaargh to them. I've booked Little Car into Garage for Friday, and Garage are loaning me a courtesy car so I can even still go to work, and hopefully all will be well... *crosses fingers, holds breath...*
