Passed!

#1 Post by BikerGran » Mon Jul 25, 2011 8:59 am

Gertie passed another MOT this morning! I was incredibly nervous about it as I couldn't find anything that she might fail on, but I'm always afraid to be optimistic in case I'm setting myself up for a fall - daft really.

Not even any advisories.

I'm having a celebratory cream doughnut and coffee, join me!

Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

Whatever you like - I prefer proper sugary doughnuts with jam in the middle!
