I know exactly where you're coming from.

I posted my application off on Friday 13th, which i knew i shouldn't have done, as i've had nothing but bad luck since.

First up, the head gasket went on my van, so i lost a day's work on the roadster fixing that.

Managed to get to my lockup today, the fan relay came loose without me noticing, the engine boiled over, burnt my face and flooded my container.

Then the fuel pump stopped working due to a bad connection. Then it started raining, just as i was about to start mapping the engine, then my generator ran out of petrol.

I've decided to give it a miss this afternoon, hopefully stuff will start going right next time.

Keep the faith, and good luck with your IVA. Have you got a date yet?

Best bit so far: Getting it running
Worst bit so far: Cutting steel for wishbones and engine mounts.
Most annoying bit so far: Generator packing up half way through welding.
