Once again I have been smacked by Murphy and his infamous laws. Last night, at 9:15, as I was leaving my dayjob, I had just backed out of my parking space, went to put the car in first, and a big nothing. My clutch died!!!!! So now on the day before vacation, I have to have my car towed. Waaaaaaaah. pffft. Now I've got to go to work. Bye.

Clutch is a necessity.
I owned a 1984 Skoda (Commie car!) and its transmission was very forgiving. I could change 1 to 2, 2 to 3, 3 to 4 without a clutch - and no grinding! I could start it in 4th!
I lost reverse gear near the end and had to 'Fred Flinstone' the thing in and out of parking spots!
God I loved that car!
It might not be the clutch, but the gear stick (or whatever you call the bloody thing). I'll find out tomorrow (keeping fingers crossed).
