Daft questions

[accord83]

Have you ever had someone ask you a daft question, yet knew what they were trying to say. I pulled up at my mates garage for fuel, his attendant, who can lift heavy weights and his Mum thinks he's special, came over as I was filling up and said,

  " Is that Escort a real Escort? "

My immediate reaction was to say, "No it's a 'kin Focus", but I just looked at him.

He looked at me,

I looked at him, 

but I knew what he meant.

 " It's not a Mexico, it's an Escort " I said,

 "Oh" he said, and wandered off to find something heavy to lift.

Get that all of the time with mine - I just say, nah, it's better than a Mex, but I liked the stickers!

Been asked a couple of times when filling the Capri, "do you use bags of cement or paving slabs in the back?" I normally reply with, "the mother in law", but generally just smile politely.

I always thought it was two paving slabs - the big ones the council use.

I wouldn't know what on earth you're talking about your worship.

I was putting air in the tyres on my Escort last year at Asda when a guy pulled up beside me and said "I used to have a Capri like that, only in red".

Best one so far, again when filling up, a large chap in a wife beater top who'd just pulled up in a transit... (get the picture?)...."mate, any chance I can take it for a drive, I've always wanted one.." Yeah, bet you have!!!! Immediate thought, if you even breathe on it I'll break all of your fingers...pull them off and feed them to you....

Working on my Anglia on the drive a guy in a Transit pulls up and says "I will give you £1000 for it as it is mate". I politely told him that that would not even buy the gearbox and told him to move on. He looked at me a little puzzled as he drove away. Just wondered if it was him that had my bonnet away off the front lawn? What a tinker lol!!!!

I overheard a comment about my engine yesterday at a show, a guy looked at the engine and said to his mate, that's a 2.8 with crap covers, Ford  didn't make a 2.9!
