Title: Speechless!!
Post by Tenfut on Mar 11^th, 2011, 3:56pm

I rang my local National Tyres this morning to see if they could repair a puncture while I waited.

"Hi, could you repair a puncture while I wait?"

"Yes sir, of course we can, what sort of car is it?"

"Scorpio"

"You mean a Granada Scorpio"

"No, not a Granada Scorpio, a Scorpio"

"Never heard of that, is it a Ford?"

I give up
