Recall done, Not road worthy

[Cant Get Right]

I wrote a reply 8 pages back, but deleted as I couldn't be arsed with the whole arb debate again. Where has the "plane on a belt" nights went, this whole forum has became a tad anal of late.

Brian i agree, as we al had this discussion elsewhere last night, but no point putting it at the end o a boring thread, start a new thread with this as the point. I really was expecting a good ribbing for my recall but all i got was x amount o pages o shoite i dont want to even hear about

What ribbing did you want? Basically, it's got an MOT so you can drive it, but if you continue to (not) look after it like you have so far, it will fall to bits or fail its next MOT.

Nah, you grumpy Scots git. He's referring to all of the Princesses who take everything one says literally. Now you, well, being a Scot, you have a valid excuse for being a grumpy barsteward.

Oy. You said he was beginning to sound like me the other week.

Yeah, I think that was just a glitch though, he seems 'normal' now.

As for not looking after truck, well maybe i dont check the fluid levels as regular as some but they do get checked. As for the rest o the faults, as i said the truck went in with two headlights working and came out with one working, am no genius but al let u work that one out for urself, And, bulbs have been replaced and fluid levels topped up

If repairing vehicles was so easy, there wouldn't be a 5 year apprenticeship to learn how to do it.

It IS easy, it's just the people that turn to it dont have it upstairs to be NASA scientists. Some of the 'professional mechanics' I've seen, it probably takes two years to teach them to tie their shoe laces!

I'm only half kidding too. It's not rocket science, and you dont need to be brilliant to do it. A careful, sensible amateur can be much better / safer than a 'trained professional' knuckledragger

As long as he doesnt "enjoy" it. That would make him a pervert.

I've seen cartloads of professional service engineers whos work I wouldn't p1ss on either. You do have a snobbish air on occasion regarding your trade, matey.
