Ah I get it!

I thought you meant "Do you want to calm down, it's only a Skoda"

See if this helps John. A bit of brute force and ignorance is always good though so have the angle grinder and a big wrecking bar handy as well.





yours, Pete

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Well I wonder if stating "I've got semtex and I'm going to blow up the houses of Parliment" will bring them round? I've always wanted to test out that theory.

Hope you get the catch off though
