 Maybe if she uses her private cell phone...
With the wireless and a what'sapp...



Oh wait!

it's the Toyota dealership.

They still sell cars with tape decks.

So were they polite and leave a message giving you an update, or did they do like most nowadays, not leave a message at all.

All Sorted!!!

Honeydew Toyota (Part of the Halfway Group), finally came to the party.
Kobus apologised for being slow off the mark.
Vehicle was booked in.
They replace the Spiral Cable Clock Spring this morning.

Total Cost was R7 081.91.
I paid R731.40 of that (the labour charge)
For which I got a free Cappuccino & a very nice car wash (Fearless was filthy).

So endth the story...
