Many thaks for that Chris!
It was my brother-in-law Terry. I had just gotten off the phone with him trying to sort out the problem & to add to the problem he was haveing trouble with his moble phone. I'm in Canberra at the time I was driveing to work myself in my yellow Mini (Maggie May)
I Expect you will see Terrry at the next NSW club meeting!

We (Terry & I) where on the phone last night saying a lot of stufff can go wrong with a mini before it will leave you stranded. (even then only untill another mini driver arrives.


Many thanks Chris

OK Chris.
So why didn't you get my car started for me when I broke down?
John.
