What A Dope!

[Tilly2]

I went to the garage to get some screen wash. Got back to the car prepared to refill the reservoir. I have never had any cause to open the bonnet of this particular car.

Sat in the driver's seat and spent a good ten minutes looking for some kind of bonnet release catch. I couldn't look in the handbook as I didn't have my glasses with me. I waited for a man to come onto the forecourt, only women arrived. Two tried to help but they couldn't find it either.

I gave up in the end and drove home. I still don't know where it is.

Vauxhall Meriva.

I heard of someone, I don't know if it was a man or a woman, who filled the oil right up to the brim.

....and, Hoppy.....?

I have seen that done, Hopkirk ( by a woman ). Some years ago early nineties on a garage forecourt a woman was topping the oil up in her Toyota Supra, the oil was coming out of the dipstick hole !.

...and it wouldn't start.

Correct, Hopkirk.
