Had a knock at my door earlier. Was a girl with a Frenchie. She asked if it was mine as it had ran up to her outside my house and kept following her. I took it from her and the wife posted on Facebook about it. I put a harness on it and spent over an hour walking around with it in the hope that the owner would appear. They never. Gave it to my daughter to look after as my own dogs were too excited around it. My daughter contacted the local police to hand it in. They told her that if nobody was available at the station to take it then she should just let it go……….wtf.
There was someone at the station who has taken it. Cannot believe what the police said and also cannot believe that the owner was not combing the streets looking for it.
Don’t know the answer but makes me wonder if the manufacturers are now so reliant on push button key fobs that they maybe use inferior key locking mechanisms and possibly even a small amount of wear on the keys renders them useless.
Got a hire van just now. It’s an electric Vauxhall Vivaro lwb. Spent almost an hour last night trying to find a charger that would accept a normal bank/credit card. Finally found one and connected to it. Said it was a Rapid charger. It would only run at half the power output stated. After about an hour sitting there I gave up. It had put a grand total of 90miles on the battery at a cost of £29. Drove it this morning like Miss Daisy for about 15 miles. The gauge said that I had used up 25 miles.
There is no danger that I would ever buy an electric motor. Absolute con job.
P.s.
have been driving for over 40 years and this is the first time that I’ve ever driven an automatic. Love it.
My name is Otto.
Tom hanks movie. Still watching it, not even half way through it yet.
Feckin brilliant.
edit.
Just finished watching.
It may not be a Philly, Gump or Ryan but it is a very entertaining movie nonetheless.
8/10.
When you go away for a "cheap" weeks holiday with the grandkids and she secretly brings enough money to cover a small African countries national debt "just in case". Aye righty girl, nowt wrong with Primark.
Always thought that I had a chance, looks like she’s gone from my life forever now

Anything that brings in tourists is never a bad thing. Americans love the idea of a chance to try and see it alongside the chance to see a wild haggis in its natural habitat!
62 plate. Went to eBay places with very good reviews but sadly all service parts were wrong. Euro parts are a bit too expensive but I guess if you go cheap like me then you get what you deserve.
