Whoops.......
Said I'd go for a little drive tonight as all the talk of FTOs got me a little in the mood for a little of that sweet FTO love. So I sat in, put on a nice metal cd I just burned, cranked it up to 50 just enough for that relaxing background ambience. Opened up my centre console to store the case, oh dear, no room there! Full of cases already, I know, I'll put it in the glove compartment! Hmm, thats a little tight, ah, it'll squeeze........so off I go. About a hundred yards down the road, Miss FTO decided 'no Marty it will NOT squeeze', and decided to throw all the stuff in the compartment on the floor, along with the compartment itself. I pulled over, and by the side of the road, in the pale moonlight, and the help of the reading lamps and a cigarette lighter, upon closer inspection I discovered the problem.....I had too much crap in the glove compartment, including a 1 kg bag of sesame sticks, (dont remember them), a prospectus for a college course I was thinking of doing a year ago, 6 batteries (I can give you yours back now Chris thanks), and various other sh1t. Broke the little holder yokes right off the hinges, but it looks easy enough to fix, in the daytime, shouldnt take too long I hope.
Which leads me to my next point, just how much crap can you fit in those glove boxes? It really amazed me what fell out of it! I could have fitted a medium sized monkey in there if I wanted to!
