So I joined the DIY crowd heading for the local B&Q, I needed polyurethane for the stair treads.
I got into the car, but it didn’t start. I was instructed to hold the key fob under the dashboard to start the engine, which I did, and it started. As I was out I would get a new battery then hopefully that would solve the problem. When I arrived at the store, the car wouldn’t lock, it kept beeping loudly, drawing attention from the other shoppers. I found the battery number from the handbook and went in search of the part. I had expected that it would be a special cell only sold through Jaguar costing a hundred pounds, but to my surprise I found it for only four quid for two. Now, the extra will be put in a safe place that I will instantly forget, and in another few years will have to buy another two.
