I will hunt you down and administer punishment with a sharp stick you bloody sod.

Upon taking the Cobra to the BP garage in Ely the car failed on the roundabout & would not restart. Thought it might have run out of juice so tipped in 5L - no change. Meanwhile car upon car are driving past - I'm blocking the RH lane of two joining the roundabout - and car is completely dead to the world.

Suddenly! a rather nice Scooby stops on my left, winds his window down & I think...thank the lord, here's my knight in shining armour....and he says to me in a well spoken voice....

"have you broken down"
"yes I have"
"......oh well"

and drives off.

Mark my words young man - I will find you.

Did make me laugh though! Got sorted in the end after police were called & pushed me off the road to await a towing back from the boyfriend. Engine is possibly scrap depending on the diagnosis tonight but there's a spare one under a tree in the garden (as you do) so should be sorted for Wednesdays meet & two days at Marham.

So if anyone saw me stranded yesterday on the A10 in Ely - you should be ashamed of yourselves you bloody sods. LOL.

DUNCAN!!!

:pmsl: :pmsl:

what a toe-rag. not me i hasten to add.

LOL no it wasn't Duncan/Dynamix!

Hannah - I am glad you saw the funny side of it. I think I would have been spitting nails :x .

It was one of those things you'd just love to say to someone but don't quite have the nerve to. Full marks for daring to say it to a girl armed with a rather large handbag within easy reach! Dicing with death there!

I would always help someone in trouble though, particularly a girl - no matter how "flash" the car is. Yes so the car looks good but yours is worth twice as much! And faster too. :lol:
I broke down in the Smart not so long back & it was a minute before someone stopped to give me a push.

Gotta laugh really! It was funny having all the traffic stop for me & being pushed by three police officers off the roundabout - I gave them all a big grin & waved. I need a reliable car!
