Calach,

I might be coming into Edinburgh tomorrow, to get strings&things. Give me a bell about lunchtime - what area of town are you?
Lamenting dead cars is about as useful as lamenting the proverbial lightbulb, whilst somebody else in the particular joke changes it. Fix it, torch it, recycle into musical instruments (I have a Mercedes-Benz harp!) or sell it.
Jeremy Clarkson's been demonstrating various options for blowing them up, on the boob-tube recently.
Good song thread, though - hard to find an audience WITHOUT someone who's had a breakdown!..........other good pub ones are Mike Bloomfield/Nick Gravenites' "They're Lettin' me Drive Again"-----(for the banned) and Wes McGhee's "The Cheater's Own Blues"...... introduced with.........."how many of you have committed adultery??????............No, No,......... don't bother to put your hands up, but you know who you are!" Especially good in a room full of couples..........
See ya the morn<

P.S. Jock told me about the prang - shame I didn't know - I sold the local "Spare car" only yesterday for £100 -- it's been passed around the gang, when their car goes bang. and has proved to be more reliable than anything we've got, despite sitting unused for months at a time, until the next emercency........................
