My Car Won't Start!

[Tilly2]

Dead as a dodo!

The AA are coming to rescue me.

[Mamyalynne]

Oh heck, keep warm till they get there.

[pastafreak]

Hope you're not in the middle of nowhere...and they come soon.

[Bazile]

Alcoholics anonymous ?

[Tilly2]

I'm at home. I'm fine. Thanks for the concern, Mamya and Pasta.

[Tilly2]

Yes, Baz. I need a drink!

[NoMercy]

Have you tried starting it in 2nd gear with your foot down on the clutch (obviousy!)?

[Tilly2]

No, Nom. I haven't done that. I just kept turning the key. I can't even lock the doors with the key fob now.

[Mamyalynne]

Ah, I misunderstood 'rescue'.

Won't help you today, but will definitely in the future.

[Tilly2]

I do need rescuing, Mamya. We have no food in the house.

[melv16]

Asda left owt on? Headlights, sidelights etc?

[Tilly2]

Thanks, Dave. I'll get one of those. Good recommendation for the future.

[murraymints]

Been away on hols..probably battery..you need a jump start

[Tilly2]

The car has been standing on the drive for the last three weeks, Melv.

[Tilly2]

Do you think it will need a new battery?

[murraymints]

No just a jump...

[murraymints]

If my leads were a tad longer... lol

[melv16]

The rescue man will tell you about a new one, he should test it, Tilly.

[melv16]

//No just a jump// chortle splutter...;-)

[gulliver1]
