Dear Vanagoniterians
One begins to wonder why one is home when the customer service
representatives of the land come knocking - yet when a girl who likely puts
hearts over the I in hand written notes is standing there - taking the time
to write a note - one is on extended appointment At proctologist ??
Dear Vanhouse
I barely believe this my self - I have an average piece of equipment - an
'09 with The skin on the front by Van Bra International - hardly anyone
ever notices even when at the community wash - so u can imagine my surprise
when the neighbour's cousin was visiting from Alaska and I saw her hanging
out in her convertible top - I was pretty sure she would find my equipment
old and slow - I having a few drinks in the back yard when she caught me
with my tools at the ready and my equipment waiting to be serviced -
I showed her how the various parts went together and pretty soon she was
helping me in ways I could never have imagined - who knew a girl this
pretty would know anything about the proper care and maintenance of
my equipment- I mean where did she learn - she told me that there was a guy
back home in Alaska who had the same sort of gear - and she often offered
to help when he was in a hard spot -
I know regular readers of Vanhouse will find my story hard to believe - but
it really happened and you know, some days I find it hard to believe too-
and my Van has never run so well as it did that day when I drove her.
Regards
