Late yesterday afternoon, as it was begining to get dark, I was working on Merlin attaching Cain’s bonnet stays. Needless to say one of the nuts fell through the engine bay onto the driveway. On laying down on the ground to reach under the car I noticed that it had landed precariously on top of a drainage grill: the first miracle was that it didn’t fall through. At that point our close by brand new VW Golf turned its lights on so I could see what I was doing. Spooky, don’t you think? The nut was retrieved and the job completed.
Actually, I had laid on the remote door lock key fob in my pocket, but I couldn’t have timed it better and would never have thought of using the other car’s lights to show up the nut.
