Different mishap

That event you speak of happened nearly a year ago!

My car was in for gearbox repair. The shop was burgled, tools stolen, and also my gearbox which was assembled, ready to go back in the car.

They sourced me another tranny, which has been going well since, other than the odd 2 to 3 flare. Will bring it back soon to have the brake band tightened.

More recently a lady had the misfortune to reverse into the back of my car while I was parked. No one hurt, lucky enough, but I have a good bit of rear damage, hence the need to buy a "parts" car from England.

Ron is on a lot, you just need to put out the right bait. The boxes o' wine have done little to dull his razorbill wit. Is that last bit correct?? Better with s than similes.

Sunday morning, off to do a little clay shooting,

Chat later Don
