The black SLK sailed through its MoT yesterday.
Back home putting the certificate away i wondered how many miles I didn't do last year in the lockdown.
4,286
I didn't.
How the juddering clutch did that happen?
That's an average of 12 miles a day and yet it didn't move for so long it knackered the battery.
What's all that about?
I might be about to win some sort of award for "stating the bleeding obvious", but have you checked that the mileage on the car's odometer matches that on the MOT certificate?Back home putting the certificate away i wondered how many miles I didn't do last year in the lockdown.

Just that a fella at work had his car MOT'd a few months ago, he's currently the proud owner of a 2017 Mini Cooper that has, according to the MOT certificate, covered something in excess of 900,000 miles...
Wow!
That certainly beats the little 1.0 Micra that I took in part-exchange years ago when I was dealing in cars:
258,000 genuine miles, and just 2 owners from new.
The second was the father, who used it to trundle to the shops every so often.
The first was the son, who was a driving instructor.
It was still on the original engine which purred like a kitten
But it had had numerous clutch replacements, and both front seats renewed.
It was a brilliant little car. I sold it at a giveaway price to a local nurse whose car had expired, so that she could commute to work at the hospital.
The first weekend she had off, she drove it 400 miles to London and back to visit relatives. It never missed a beat. She called in on me to tell me how pleased she was with it.

Has he still got Schofield's hand up his arse?
More than likely. Strange business all that, never crossed my mind that he batted for the other team.He'd been on Futtette's "Gaydar" for some time though, long before I even knew her apparently.
"Yer, I'd had him down as a chutney ferret for a futtin long time Bom"
Admit it glenners, you've been on the OSH since breakfast?
Frankly, I'm shocked, since you received a flagon of Spring Thunder on Tuesday according to Arthur's records and the repeat order is already in process!
Do you need the AA?
ION, can bobbers please send His Lordship Roger D'Frasche, the Whipping Boy, back as his pass was only for 24 hours and he has other duties?
Thank you.

Honest!
What???
Yes, honestly!
As for bringing the AA battery into play, that's a good idea, just in case those honey otters plan on bringing their airborne forces into play whilst we are distracted by the VPU.
Let's see how the little blighters like a taste of a bit of hot metal from the old Bofors on the airfield and the Oerlikon on the north turret.
Hah!
Second OSH please!

No sign of the HB's for a while since Vince, the Gamekeeper, has been given free reign, and restocked with ammo, to cull the vermin. Damned bureaucracy...
No word yet about Roger?
