Trust me it will happen!
You get so used to walking into the Town everyday that when you get your Car back on the road again.
It's very easy to forget that you have got it with you and then walk home without it.
As for the Red Jag, I can't bear to look and its going to take a great big bottle of JD before I manage to pluck up the courage to do so.
All that hard work for nothing, I just feel like Topping myself.

I've decided that there are at least two kinds of elves.
1. The good ones. They fix things for us. things that did not work at days end, work just fine the next morning.
2. The bad ones. They derive a devilish pleasure in hiding things
in plain view???
I think one of the bad ones lurks in my geneology.
My dear departed was inanetly curious. Hiding gift from her was a challenge. Early on, I learned that merely wrapping them was not likely to succeed. So, I hid them in mysterious places. My favorite was a nice jewelry piece. She delighted in jewelry. In the back part of the drawer in her night table. Perfect, I won that one. Her reaction, a mix of pleasure and displeasure. Akin to the agony of defeat vs the pleasure of victory
Now, how did that chipper idler clutch assembly go back together???
At least all the parts seem to still be there in the "work pan" !!!

Hi Daim
I honestly haven't looked at her yet, so no idea of how bad things might be, so I'm waiting for the right moment for me to take the 'Brave Pills' and psych myself up enough to be able to accept whatever 'The Jaguar Gods' have decided to give me.
