1. Powercut at julie's house
2. Went to jazz club up Manchester instead
3. Sign on door of jazz club says "closed due to powercut"
4. Go back to car but noticed it is missing presumed stolen
5. Get a lift home and start checking ebay for a new car
6. Phone police next door to report stolen car. They say try the pound
7. Turns out car was towed and I pay £135 to get it released.
8. On way home I accidentally smack into a kerb, bending steering column and writing the car off.

So that was my bad day. Points 1-7 are all true. Number 8 is completely made up.
