Well the nice men in the hospital poked me, shook me, prodded me and stuck a PROBE up me !!.....then told me I was in exceptional condition for my age.....

They then gave me a piece of paper with nothing on it !

PASS, ZERO advisories !

Brilliant :D After seeing you on Sunday and giving you a little poke around I never doubted your ability to pass an MOT for a moment!

That is a proud record... Better than me... I've had one fail in recent years and that was on a front wishbone bush on the Activa...

My last MOT the guy pushed one of the rear wheels round and a horrible noise came out....................then he grinned, he'd wedged a spanner against the inner edge of the tyre tread.

Daffodil made new friends last night. She thinks that "young ones" are a little big.
