To quote Jean-Paul Sartre
"Greasing is absence, greasing is the solitude of man"
Actually I may have got that a tiny bit wrong
or when Sartre was writing about Morgan ownership he wrote
"All human actions are equivalent and all are on principle doomed to failure"
I thought it was Schrodinger who said that the grease can be both in and outside of the stub axle at the same time and the only way to be certain is to get underneath and have a look?
Or am I confusing him with that Rene (no relation to the café owner in Alo Alo) Dustcart who said 'I think therefore I grease'?
