    Does it have Boris Karloff?

      I surmised that Douglas Thomas had rented his fields to the circus again.

        Hmm, now it's saying 12.26 - 12.27. Maybe I misread it yesterday. It's not enough, anyway

          I wouldn't condemn it until it's failed to turn over the engine.

            Hannibal, not content with just crossing the Alps decided to truly test his mettle on the heads of the valleys road.

              Yep, I'll give it a go, but I suspect that even if it gets the car started the first time, it will need replacing sooner rather than later

                  They're quoting £84 (without any details of precisely what battery it is), whereas Halfords have an ordinary one for £65 or a calcium one for £75, and are only ten minutes drive away

                      It is apparently raining outside but I can see sun.
