VW Saga

GF was meant to return the courtesy car with a full tank. However, due to the fact that many locals have overdosed on stupid pills, there was a huge queue at the pumps of people who probably drive 5 miles a week, and were trying to squeeze an egg-cup full of petrol into the top of their already brimming tanks.

"Sod it!" muttered the Gorse Fox.

The car was returned to the car doctor and GF's own car handed over. GF explained the courtesy was not full, and why.

"Typically they'll charge you by the mile" explained the lady dealing with the transfer.

I'd like to see them try. muttered the GF.

He drove home in his own car, with its new engine. Feels like it needs a good blast along a straight road, but this is West Sussex so the Gorse Fox sat behind a hat, driving a car at 25 mph, all the way home.
