Battery disconnected

[babylilo]

I took my car to the garage the other day cos one of my tyres was goin down. I thought i might have to buy a new tyre but the guy said it was just the valve so they changed it for me. They took a really long time to have a look at the tyre. Anyways i went home and noticed that there was a twig from a tree stuck under the bonnet, so i opened it to take it out. Then a couple of days later(that being today) i went out to the car to go to work and the car wouldn't start!! i went to work and i got a call from my mum saying she had looked under the bonnet and they had disconnected the battery! the reason why the car would start was because the battery hadn't been charged and so she connected it up and recharged the battery. I am really angry because i could of stalled this car anywhere and might not of been able to start it again! just lucky it was in the drive and not in the middle of nowhere! the car is now working fine and will never being going back to the same garage!!

ok just got your last answer ,did you not think to ask them why they were under it ,i know i would have especially if i was concerned at the time sorry if i sound a bit disbelieving in this matter ,you should have said all this in your post and people wouldn't be confused

I know they were under the bonnet because there was twig that was stuck under it but pocking out and when i went to pull it out it wouldn't come i actually had to open the bonnet to remove it.......And anyways my car is only 6 months old it doesn't just come loose after 6 months
