I have decided that today is national extract the urine out of a Scotsman day and so I will tell you how I made a complete idiot of myself yesterday.

At the beginning of May I took delivery of a new Volkswagen Golf and until a week past Monday everything was great however on that day my car developed a strange clicking noise whenever I moved up through gears 1 to 4. There was no click moving to 5th or 6th gear and no click when I braked or moved down through the gears. So I thought to myself that there must be something wrong with the gear box and contacted the dealership I bought the car from. They booked my car in for yesterday to check it out.

They picked the car up yesterday morning but within 10 minutes I received a call saying they had fixed the problem and this is where it gets embarrassing. In front of the gear stick is a small compartment where the 12v cigarette lighter sits and I use this to hold my angina spray bottle in case I ever need it while out in the car. Unbeknown to me, as I changed up through the gears this bottle was moving backwards or forwards and striking the front or back of the compartment and making a clicking noise. This only happened moving up through the gears where the car dips slightly, i.e. 1 to 4. Once they had removed the bottle the clicking stopped. I protested but they were right and I am officially an idiot. Why it never clicked when I was braking though I'll never know.

Why confess I hear you ask? Well there are times when it is appropriate to do so and I know that all of you who frequent the Hall of Fame will sympathise with me and concur that you all would have come to the same conclusion as I did. So be gentle with me please.

Anyway I now have a non-clicking car again!

It's taken me ten hours to stop laughing enough to type.

There's a great old Australian song you would love,

Out on the board the old shearer stands,
Grasping his shears in his thin bony hands
Fixed is his gaze on a bare-bellied yoe,
Glory if he gets her, won't he make the ringer go.

Chorus

Click go the shears boys, click, click, click,
Wide is his blow and his hands move quick,
The ringer looks around and is beaten by a blow,
And curses the old snagger with the bare-bellied joe.

I'm sure you could get the clicking to fit with the chorus.

Oh god.....I've got tears in my eyes..........

Is this an Aussie thing?

I just wonder:
What happens on 'Pirate day' and why ?

TheFang

We all talk like Pirates. Don't ask me why.

Savvy?

The Yanks have to grab onto something Z.

They can't celebrate St Andrews day because they are Yanks.
They can't celebrate Anzac day because they are Yanks.
They can't celebrate Grundlovsdag because they are Yanks

There is no Yanks day so they invent one called pirates day. Pretty pathetic really don't you think?
