Divine Intervention?

[Elton]

If there's a God, do you think he likes Mitsubishi Evo's? This is a true story of what happened today....

 

I had to go to church. The better half was acting as Godmother at the baptism of her friend's child. Having to go to church and wear a suit wasn't the best start to a Sunday morning that I could imagine.

 

Still, at least I can give the car a blast around the country roads...

 

As we step outside, Mrs. Elton pipes up, "we're going in my car, yeah?"

 

"No," I reply, "We'll take mine."

 

"There is now way I'm turning up at a quiet country church in that !" was her response.

 

There then followed a brief argument, followed by a major strop on by me (car keys and wallet thrown back into the house, the full 'grown up' works ).

 

Anyway, as we pulled up at the church, somebody pointed out that Tania's car had a puncture. I'm convinced that it was divine intervention and was done to teach her a lesson.

 

Mind you, it was me that had to change the flipping wheel....

Damn! I haven't got a smart-arse reply for that one

If there was a god and if he did indeed like Evo's the puncture would have occurred before you left for the church!

Perhaps he's only just cottoning on

Young fella - may I suggest an alternative for next time so the fuss never starts. Not that she will be happy, you understand, just won't have any place to start with you.

"I'm going in mine. You are welcome to ride along."

Actually Eltons the boss in his house AND he has the wifes permission to say so, so there

 

BTW Elton

 

from what i've heard god prefers lada's, he must do cos our little 1200 got us all the way to Embo on one tank of juice & when i say fully loaded i mean boot packed so tight i had to sit on it to get it to close, back parcel shelf full of stuff, back seat had Dian (pregnant with Cheyenne at the time), mum & my son Johnathan.

 

In the front was Ian (a mate) & me plus the passenger floorwell had all the butties & flasks etc in it.

 

We past loads of rovers,beemers, mercs, a scooberu & other assorted fords etc all broke down at the side of the M6, then the A9 but not one lada

 

Oh & as you're gonna be a daddy soon i'd suggest getting a lada estate for all the nappies, changing bag & mat, bottles, buggy, etc etc

Elton,

The only thing that takes more kit than angling is a baby. How about a van with side door?

I see you've learned when it is best to "fight another day". You're lucky she didn't puke on you. Save your ultimatims for important occasions like fishing. Once you have agreed to go the Church it is always going to be a down hill slide.

Newt,

Did you say you've had more than one wife? I would get decked by my lovely bride, Precious were I to deliver such a line. Yes, she does wear the pants on the occasional Sunday.

Evo's should only be owned by those who can also afford a tow truck. God often will be invoked is dispare.

If there's a God, do you think he likes Mitsubishi Evo's?

Elton

I'd think,

he has a little chuckle

every time he see someone driving one
