A dealer with a sense of humour!

Post by Blink Bonny »

Ay up!

A rarity, this.

I just ordered a replacement wheel which duly arrived, wrapped in bin bags. Put it this way, either it's a wheel or it's a giant, industrial sized pile cushion!!!

In the centre of this wheel was a curious little document holder containing the message "For when the job is done." This contained a tea bag! :lol:

Just goes to show, some eBayers are OK.....
If I ain't here, I'm in Bilston, scoffing decent chips at last!!!!

The tea bag reminded me of comedian Tommy Cooper. One of Cooper's favourite tricks when travelling by taxi was to pay the exact fare but then slip something into the driver's breast pocket and mutter "Have a drink on me". It was a tea bag!
