Horners' Odyssey: Auto ineptitude

Auto ineptitude

S can do some things well. Spelling, for example.

But anything car-related is a disaster area. To wit:

- Recently, S called her insurance company to add her brother to the policy, but was unable to tell the call-centre person the make, model or year of the car...... only that it is blue.

- Last week, S drove at night with only side-lights on (in the belief that headlights are for fog and dark mountain passes)

- Until recently, S thought she was driving a 4-door saloon, only to be informed that it is, in fact, a hatchback.

Anyway, earlier this week we decided to order a roofbox, because we don't have enough boot space for a family of four.

S went online, read all about roofboxes, did lots of price comparisons..... and then purchased a MONSTER which is longer than the car.

Fortunately the website does a 90-day free exchange, otherwise B would not be looking so heartily amused as he does in this picture.
