Apparently I am a .....
Apparently I am a A$%`hole.

Now I am sure somepeople would agree with this sentiment Rolling with laughter


This afternoon I got waved down by a Mitsubushi driver.

Now this driver had his bonnet up so I pulled in to find out the problem.

Would I tow him up the hill?

Errr NO!


Why not?

You are towing another vehicle.

But it is attached by a proper A frame!


Err NO it is ILLEGAL. I do not have a fair ground licence.


Well can you fix my vehicle, a wire has come off the starter motor?

Err NO I am not a mechanic

(Now why would a starter motor problem stop a vehicle already moving and towing??)

Well I will detach the vehicle I am towing so you can tow me up the hill.

Err NO, you are beginning to take the Censored , apart from the fact you would want me to do it for the vehicle you are towing as well.

(Also I do not like the look of your recovery eye)

So apparently I am a A$%^hole

However I will only towing/recover vehicles that I feel comfortable doing, am happy with the attitude of people wanting help. OK I am sure I could have towed both vehicles up the hill in one go, however I was not happy or willing to do so. If that makes me an A$%^hole so be it!

Should have asked did he have AA/RaC etc membership
