(ANOTHER) breakdoon.
NOW THAT'S WHAT I CALL A BREAKDOON 93
on an 87 this particular morning with 703 i think it was(the OLD 700's),coming
back into "sairheed" everything going well on time (YAHOO)just cleared the
lights when BOOOM wtf wiz zzat?? initially i thought the gearbox or a tyre had
blown bein january it wiz fuckin freezin and the road was wet, so the back
wheels had locked and i'm sliding like shit, got it under control then tried to
hit the button no joy BOLLOX!!! went to the public phone to find some bastard
put superglue over it. after leaving half the skin of my hand on it i managed to
get into the papershop and she kindly let me use her phone chocoholic surrounded
by sweets torture!! eventualy lurch turns up with a torch lifts the bonnet and
here's number one piston lying in the drip tray. yur no goan anywhere wi this
says he, apart from taking out the sump, the crack went up the side of the
casing and took the cylinder block out as well state the bleedin obvious will ye
donut!! so the street fitters arrived "happy sei!
zed engine" har fuckin har how witty yahoo i say!!
nobody said anything to me about putting reports in so next day half way through
the shift gets hauled in through the back to find union man depot engineer cheif
engineer plus divisional superintendent (as they were then)
first question: "what happened ?"
me:"went boom"
"how did it go boom"
"errrr BOOOOOMM!!"
"why did it go booooomm"
ow the fuck do i know ya silly cunt mebbe that part of the engine was somethin
recycled from an f1 car and was depressed to have sunk so low as to be part of a
common bus engine JEEEZUS CHRIST ASK ME SOMETHIN SENSIBLE FURRA FUCKIN CHANGE
TIT!!
so i had to spend my time writing out reports statin the bleedin obvious, no
warnin lights no nothin in fact. so through the grapevine i heard that a week
later the cunts had an inspector on the same bus quizzing everybody who came on
about how i was driving and for a change i came out on top. YES!!! a couple of
months later talkin to the depot engineer i found out that they'd replaced the
crankshaft a day or so earlier but hadn't used the genuine leyland part, in
other words cut costs and when there's a fuck up blame the driver. from the last
time i was in the garage a few weks ago nothings changed
