The car had to go to the dealer to get looked at and have the funny noise emanating from the front somewhere to be diagnosed. So I rang them and arranged a date and duly arrived and delivered car.
And was given a lift the few miles back to Kirkwall. And shortly after that I was rung with the diagnosis.
And then a conversation a bit like this.
- Garage " would you like us to drop the car off ? "
- Me "oh, yes please , that would be helpful "
- G: where shall we drop it off ?
- Me : In the carpark ?
- G: Yes Ok then
- Me: and what about the keys ?
- G: We'll leave them under the seat.
and when i went out to get the car, about 7 hours later, it was still there and the keys were as described .
According to other people I spoke to, alternative answers to the "what about the keys ? " question would have been
- In the glove box
- Behind the Sun visor
- In the door compartment
- under the Passengers seat
Lock the car, find me and give me the keys ?
"Why would you want to do that ? "
