Nah, he never touched me! shocked

laugh

We used to land the helicopter close to the cottage if we were out on exercise as there was an emergency fuel dump close by. We used to look to see if his Rolls Royce was sitting outside and if he was in he'd often come across for a chat. Seemed nice enough to us.

Not sure it would entice Mrs AR to take the coupé... laugh

Well the trip may be back on - it turns out it's the first weekend in December we're thinking of going away, not the last weekend in November.


Dear monos, a secret truth.

You lot are so lucky your women will not get in your cars. Mine goes missing every time my wife goes out and I am in frown

She brought my first Coupe back that I had years ago with dents to the front, sides and back all at the same time. She was in tears when she came home, worried about how I would take the news. Her then boss didn't see it in the staff carpark. He was in a 4x4. He reversed into it and carried on, pushing the front through two concrete bollards, one on each side. He is a solicitor. He tried to get me to pay half shocked Told him where to go. Wife was still in probation period and got finished a month later irked Was a family firm, and the rest of his family wanted him to keep her on, but he had made his mind up. Luckily that was the last time she has taken a car of mine out and brought it back damaged. Next time would be the last though.
