    If you cant beat them join em.

    40 lads from Kirkby on a coach to Blackpool for a booze up. Way back coach crashes all are killed.
    40 souls arrive at heavens gate altogether.
    St Peter says I cant let 40 in all together I better go and see God to see if its OK.
    After a while God agrees they can come in.
    St Peter goes off to tell them the good news.
    5 Mins later returns to God and says "God they have gone"
    God says who the 40 lads from kirkby.
    No No says St Peter the f*_*_*_ gates.

    If there's anyone wanting a new set of gates, i'll be in the bar of the Fantail at lunch time.
    I'll do you a good deal.

  • just to update. garage owner has been arrested for theft.the police are sending a vehicle inspector today with a view to him having his mot testers certificate revoked for intentionally leaving a vehicle in a potentially dangerous condition , and on inspection , if damage has been caused to the underside of the vehicle , a charge of criminal damage.

    the work on my car was done in exchange for work done on his garage which was roughly to the same value as work on my vehicle.

    So are you gonna go back to the garage and take your roof off?

    I am pleased to hear he had his collar felt by the long arm of the law.

    If he did not pay for the parts.they were not his to be stolen!
    and he was depriving the garage of the parts he was also taking part in the act of theft.
    just to look at it from another angle!!!

    But the Op thinks he has paid, not in cash but with his labour. And even if it were true that he hasn't paid the garage, the solution is for them to go to the Small Claims, not to send in the heavies.

    Sounds like the police agree as well.
