I also never take money for servicing friends cars or fixing their computers (though I do have various IT qualifications) for the reasons you state but I'm always happy for them to donate to a charity of their choice instead
Ditto...
Except I don't, under any circumstances, fix computers... I know nothing about them for one thing...
Happy to report the Skoda cooling system is working perfectly

Popped out to fill her up with petrol. Had a bit of a panic at the pump when I found the door key did not fit the filler cap... Then I remembered the key hiding in the ashtray...
The fuel filler neck amused me... It looks like the threaded end of a big iron water pipe
I popped in a measure of lead substitute too...
I also picked up a can of petrol injector cleaner to pop in the Saxo on the next tank fill to see if that might help matters... I don't suppose it'll do any harm...
That quick run to the petrol station turned into a 15 mile round trip - just to test the cooling system you understand

This time the gauge just worked its way up to 80 degrees and stayed planted there for the whole trip...
Happy to find a cassette of the Eagles in the Skoda glovebox and even happier to find the cassette deck works well too

I need a cassette deck on my home stereo system now so that I can record some; not had anything to do with cassettes for a good 20 years now at least... Can you still get blank cassettes?
No I'm off out for a bike ride... It's cold but gorgeously sunny. It would be rude not to
