we got all ready to go away last month 2 weeks supply of everything plus the kitchen sink to go touring. got hitched up i noticed a slight lifting of the front end .Revved her up let the clutch out and...........nothing the wheels stayed put on the drive and the engine died theres something wrong here i thought so i had a cup of tea and a think ..... then i broke my daughters heart, i told her she'de have to take out all of her teddies. then we all got back into the car struck her up and hey presto off we went like a shot out of a gun 345 mile touring and not a murmer the only thing about the whole trip was i had to watch the weight of pressies we brought back indeed i again broke my daughters heart when i refused point blank to her purchasing a giant woolley panda apart from that a stress free trip with a return mpg whilst towing of about 56
(Comment Webmaster: Nice try Spike, lovely story though...)
