Probably an auto correct! BTW the starter motor seems to be from a Matiz if anyone is looking for one.





Phoned the local ramblers club today, but the bloke who answered just
went on and on.

Many years ago when I was driving buses found a piece of steel, 5" wide 1\2" thick and about 3 foot long, lying right on the line in the middle of the road, thought it would come in handy and its still in the garage..

Couple weeks ago found a road sign, about 6' by 5' lying in the middle of the road, only just fitted in the back of me van, all in the search of safety!

Trunking up and down the motorways now there's tons of crap falls of tons of wagons and pickups, just last week someone had left a caravan lying on its side in lane 3

Truck tyres, mudguards Suzie's, brushes, spades, straps and ropes and chains... it goes on and on! In the services the flip flop polish drivers leaving empty beer cans all over the place, that worry's me a bit...

The alternator fell off my Land Rover once.

I only figured it out a month later, so it's still somewhere in the Cotswold countryside unless one of you "road combers" hasn't picked it up!

Brilliant. You do indeed learn something new every day.

I was a bit disappointed though that handystraps.com didn't turn out as I first expected

Once when walking home from the pub in the centre of Leicester I found a large farm pitchfork in the centre of the A47. I thought someone could run over that and cause a accident. I picked it up and carried it home. About 10 minutes later the Po Po pulled up along side me and asked what I was doing with a dangerous weapon. I think I was on the verge of being arrested for carrying a dangerous weapon but in the end they decided to take the fork and leave me be.
