Lights

Lights, camera, inaction.

Last night we saw an eclipse of the moon. Down here on the south coast, with almost no light pollution, it looked incredible with its red hue glowing almost malevolently in the night sky. Gorse Fox went for his trusty camera and took a couple of pictures, but they did not come out. Shame, it was quite a sight.

Whilst on the subject of lights, an interesting little light has decided to illuminate the Silver Vixen's dashboard. GF took here trusty steed (Felicity!) to Toyota this morning. He oped that they would confirm it was the service reminder light (as she's coming up towards 20,000 miles). Toyota was staffed by a receptionist and a solitary lady sales rep. who looked a little hung-over and was clasping a cup of water as if her life depended on it. Gorse Fox explained the symptoms (resisting the urge to raise his voice or make any loud noises), and the youngster responded that the car should not be driven and that GF should contact the service department in the morning.

As she turned and stumbled away she said "I hope you haven't filled up at Tesco, Morrisons, or ASDA".

Fortunately, we haven't!
