Admin Vista Posted January 16, 2009 Admin Report Posted January 16, 2009 In fairness, the black one is diesel at every petrol station I've visited, shouldn't the unleaded nozzle be green?

stevepeanut Posted January 18, 2009 Report Posted January 18, 2009 I bought a new padlock for the metal garage I put up. Its sort of see through in bright red. It comes with a key and the top is bright red too. So I gets a shout from the mrs "this bloody new lock you bought is crap, it must have frozen, I cant get it open". I walked round the back, to find her with the black key which fits the black lock on the other garage, poking away at the red lock. 5 seconds later, red key and red lock I opened it!
garyv6100e Posted January 18, 2009 Author Report Posted January 18, 2009 How did the training go down the garage She has now been suitably re-educated , she still feels like an idiot for doing it though

bortaf Posted January 18, 2009 Report Posted January 18, 2009 I fitted an cut out switch in the wifes diesel car, she remembers to switch it off to stop the car starting but now she keeps leaving the drivers window wide open went to get in it yesterday and it's got 3 inches of water over the carpet, too many things to do i gues, turn off switch, breath, lock door, keep shoes clean Mind you she's only put petrol in it once (only a fiver) AND she filled the tank with diesel after so it didn't notice, she worked that out all by herself as well, i was so proud of her
