Well limping. Backended by an Alfa Spyder, which sounds like it came off worse. Went under the passenger rear bumper.

She needs a new exhaust back to the block inc manifold. Tank guard, bumper, and both light clusters.

THEN
Mon night she was broken into and some theiving scum had the CB away :S




Funny thing is. Devil duck is in a police evidence baggy ready to go and be fingerprinted.
I must confess the the activities of the UK governments for the past couple of years have been watched with frank admiration and amazement by Lord Vetinari. Outright theft as a policy had never occured to him.

So the devil duck could be crucial in giving evidence against the thief/s!!!  Doing its job at last!

Sorry to hear about that though, thats seriously bad luck.

the devil duck has apparently been slacking in his protection duties.

Think its a 9" disc, not sure. But needs to be done tomorrow for plains/alton. Ta anyways.

The duck is now in police custody. Was all very very surreal.

Handed it over, and explained that the officer in charge wanted it dusted for prints. Blank look.

Rummaging through my pockets for paper I get informed that April first was several months ago. She spots the evidence baggie the duck is in as I produce the details.

'Oh, you are serious'

Ducky then gets booked in, she gets to the discription part and starts giggling like a 13 year old. Description goes down as 'red horned latex rubber duck (small)'

Next question, with a HUGE grin on her face : 'Does he have a name?

my reply 'Err no, its just a duck' So the two enquiries officers then name him Howard.

So
Duckie is helping with enquiries. He'll be looked after and fed I'm assured and they feel much safer now they have a devil duck in the station. I'll pop pics up later.

I got just over a grand on whiplash injuries last year when a rover driver wrote off their car on my back end!
