Our Jalopy has been making a few noises as of late. Since the exhaust pipe developed a leak some months ago I took it to Lewis Tyre and Exhaust place - as you do and Mr ExhaustMan patched it up for me. Charged me a very small fortune. So small that I thought he was joking. The patch lasted a couple of months but eventually, the Ford quality shone through and the thing almost fell off. So I took it upon myself to revisit these charming people in MaryBank in the Big Smoke of Stornoway. [only Stornoway has little smoke of note, the air being fresher than....... well fresh. Fresher than earlier on this week anyway when I had the pleasure of visiting Edinburgh for the day to be grilled for a job. I got a job and a brilliant half-hour in the Natioanl Scottish Portrait Gallery where there are some fine photographs. However, the air is not as fresh as Stornoway's. But fresher than Manchester I seem to recall - but if you want real objective data look here.].
Getting back The Exhaust, the smilling men of Lewis Tyre and Exhaust soon fitted a new bit and I paid up but not before I managed to bag a few snaps.
