Title: OIL LEAK....................
Post by: MikeDundee on 08 July 2008, 19:53:29
......was at one of the other offices all day yesterday, and after coming back from lunch, still managed to get the same parking spot, but as I drove in I noticed a very large spill of oil :-/...thought crikey, no can't be surely, have'nt noticed anything outside the house.................Anyway turns out must have been someone else that parked there during my lunch break (as the space is reserved for managers only), must have been a tenant :y ;D ;D

I followed an Astra van last week whose brakes were so bad I thought they were mine from 25m away with all the windows shut!  Took a couple roundabouts to be sure that it wasn't me.
