    Suspicious Shed

    Took lawnmower in for a service and as expected had the usual phone call to say something else was wrong , only this time they are telling me the back roller bearings are illegal and require replacing.

    The lawnmower has only done 6 cuts from new , is used by the wife to cut the front lawn and has barely been on the grass.

    The bearings are 132 quid each according to the shed , so I told then to forget it.

    Now I am wondering if they have changed them for some worn ones , so when I go to pick it up it will be illegal

    Stop calling your Passat a lawnmower. It's not that bad ...or maybe it is.
    Hard Brexit now!

          Shouldn't that be a £5 Argos gift voucher.

            Na, M&S. Permies usually get those because you can't actually find anything to spend it on.

            Maybe some blue biros...

                Some people are like slinkys, totally pointless but the thought of pushing them down a flight of stairs never fails to put a smile on your face.
