Marge insists that we go to a car wash - £5.

I'm worried that one day it will occur to her that I could wash it for free.

I took my car to be washed Monday, it was £8.     As I tried to explain about the resident spider in my wing mirror, I realised the fella didn't speak any English.  He did a good job, even though the spider didn't drown.

Overpaying!  £5 is par for the course, at least at illegal immigrant car-washes.

Definitely not worth 2/6d. They sold Jesus for thirty pence for pity's sake.

JB drives back to Yorkshire to get a £5 car wash.  Only costs him a tenner in petrol.

The hand car washes around here have got like everything else -  dearer and dearer.

I sometimes to my little Fiat myself,  but I couldn't be bothered to get the stuff together this week, so I went to the car wash down town.

Guess how much?  . . . .  £11  flippin' quid for a little Fiat Panda!

As a teensy aside, has anyone (or do you know anyone who has) bought a piece of the cross that was used to crucify Jesus?  I remember seeing slivers of timber being advertised for sale in old Readers Digests.  There were also little phials of water from the River Jordan for sale.
