Chinged Days

Ma faithir wis telln us a stoary the ithir nicht aboot how he took us aw doon ti Bournemooth n back in his Ford Corsair wi a dodgy clutch.
The day eftir he came back he wis heidn up the brae abin the Kinneil Pit - ken that yin whaur Greegs nearly killt the auld boay wi the bogey ful i tag stolen fi the tip yon nicht we wur racin cars - n the clutch finally broke.
Anyhows - he goat a price fi Riddell's ti fix it n basically it wis dearer thin the residual value i the car.
In the end he managed ti fix it himsel - wi some ROABERTSON'S JAM.
