It's just this kind of laughter-making that has made helping the silly old buffoon not only bearable, but actually , a pleasure.<br /><br />As for 'appreciation' and 'gratitude', I think it's safe to say the snow-ploughs and gritting lorries will be out in Hell before our Gentleman shows any at all.....<br /><br />But that isn't really the point.<br /><br />He has been horribly swindled. He paid a banderlog between £1900 and £2500 (the amount varies from conversation to conversation...) for a supposedly reconditioned engine which is actually nothing of the sort.<br /><br />We have, the three of us, gone a long, long way out of our way to help him. We haven't done it for money, (he's none left!), or any other reason or reward, really, other than it's simply 'the right thing to do'.....<br /><br />I hope that doesn't sound smug or twee.....<br /><br />Because our Gentleman is a monumental pain in the arse at times.......<br /><br />:-)John Wittshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14291220958329864659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6580507995910853692.post-83915605768934928422012-11-15T20:12:27.957+00:002012-11-15T20:12:27.957+00:00My thoughts were that if you introduced the can of...My thoughts were that if you introduced the can of Easy Start, blunt end first into a location where the sun never shines, it may kick-start his appreciation and gratitude circuits because they're obviously not working at the moment<br /><br />Chrisanzachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13455846607260111652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6580507995910853692.post-24329823799010800962012-11-14T19:37:15.637+00:002012-11-14T19:37:15.637+00:00'Twas truly tempting, Chris!
