Thank you for calling.   If you can describe the type and location of the vehicle, we will send a patrol man out to asses the vehicle.   We are very busy at the moment, so it might be around 2 hours before he can get to you.

Grumble grumble, five hours... five hundred quid... at £100 an hour I could have hired a call girl and had a lot more fun :)

I'm not sure what is more worrying... the fact that you have taken the time to actually work that out as an alternative..... or the fact that you know the going rate !   :shock:

<private injoke>you'll be asking for a divorce next!  I'm getting custody of the servers :)</private injoke>

£100 an hour though, that's a lot of money for me to pay for the privilidge of sitting around waiting for them to come and break my motor....  I mean, if I wanted it broken I could have asked Ben, he's a lot cheaper....

The missus went out the other night and came back with £500.20p.
I asked which miserable so and so gave her 20p?
