We all hate intermittent faults. They never misbehave when you have a mechanic to take a look, but my Ro has taken it to another level.

I was at the Fish today and amongst other things I asked Mark to take a look at my squeaking accelerator pedal. It wasn't my shoe causing it and it had been getting louder in the past few weeks. When they tried it out, it didn't sqeak. So, I went to show them the big squeak and sure enough there was total silence and silence all the way home too. Just one of those things?

On a previous trip I asked Andy to sort out the passenger door window that kept getting stuck. "It seems fine to me" he said, and it has never ever got stuck since.

Perhaps the Fish can fix things now via the Biblical powers of The Laying On Of Hands?

In Cockney terms, these jam jars are mugging us off. They probably just need a dry slap.
