Pop

Today's lyric:
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
"So the world is spinning faster
Are you dizzy when you're stoned?
Let the music be your master
Will you heed the master's call?"

Led Zeppelin: "Houses of the Holy"
From the album: "Houses of the Holy"

Beaty

One of the Cooper's front tyres has develope a minute 'bulge' - imperceptible, even when marked out with chalk - so full marks to the garage for spotting it.

Or - being uber-cynical - maybe they bumped the kerb to get a tyre fitting out of me?

Nah - they're good people, all.

Intermittently crook

Today's lyric:
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
"Why stay in college? Why go to night school?
Gonna be different this time
Can't write a letter, can't send a postcard,
I can't write nothing at all
This ain't no party, this ain't no disco,
this ain't no fooling around
I'd like to kiss you, I'd love you hold you
I ain't got no time for that now."

Talking Heads: "Life during wartime"
From the album: "Once in a lifetime"

Not one bad track on it

The Cooper has - for the first time in its lifetime of 3 1/4 years - had to visit the garage today for an intermittent noise from the brakes to be investigated.

I can picture a grease-monkey tooling around town all day 'listening' for a noise while having the fun of driving it?

update
246 of your finest English pounds for pads all round, labour and the dreaded VAT.

And a warning not to rely on the worn-brake-pads warning light, because the damage to the discs could be horrendous before it lights up?
