We just bought a used dining-room table set (table plus 2 leaves and 6 chairs) and the best option for transporting this stuff home, was the van. I mentioned to my wife, as we headed out of the house, that: 1) It's winter and -5 degrees C, 2) The van's been sitting for 6 weeks &, 3) Hasn't been run, at all, since I R&R-ed the carb. So, as we were putting on our coats/hats/gloves, and heading out to the van, she paused at the door, and, while looking at the floor, said: "You'd better go get your tool kit". For some reason that struck me as "funny". I thought to myself: Now there's a woman who knows VANAGONs!!! Malcolm
Postscript: I took the tool kit, and the van ran perfectly. |
