As I lay sleeping the day away (I'm on nights this week) a bloke knocked on our front door, and out of curiosity the wife answered to see what he wanted.
This fella was a, well lets just say a man of no fixed abode with a caravan and his main form of transport was a Tranny van.
What are you doing with that old bath, can I take it, he asked about the metal bath which I'd just dumped behind the front hedge (out of sight of passing scrap-metal collectors, I'd hoped), to which she replied we want it, and no you can't take it. Well what about those ramps then? he asked, pointing to the car ramps which I'd carelessly left out. No, we want them too. Well do you have anything else, any othe scrap metal I can have? he asked as he craned his brass neck round the side of the house, eying up our trailer. No, she answered.
Well what about that then, can I take that? he said, pointing to my Freelander :doh:
I can't believe that of all the possible scrap metal we have that his last choice was the Freelander.
