Foot valve

Post by smiffy » 06 Apr 2010

At long last, the foot valve on my car has been changed by the lovely Doctor Chris, I owe him a blow job!

It's kind of surreal to leave the car for a few hours, come back to it, and it's not only still sat up, but when you get in and start it, the stop light goes out instantly!

Of course I know that when you disturb the hydraulics on a citroen, and in my case do a blood transfusion... (I swapped the LHM for Hydraurincage), there is a honeymoon period. Just aswell I did, there was all sorts of shite in the reservior!
We shall see what it's really like by this time next week.

On a serious note, Keep an eye open for a red line traveling up yer leg and a sort of sore feeling. A blow to the foot can result in an infection starting up due to temporary stopping of the blood flow.

If you find a girl with a foot fetish, you'll be sorted! And she probably won't even need your nob anyway...

If that extends to her drinking champagne from your shoe, at size 15 that becomes an expensive quantity! :wink:

No red line as yet, so it looks like I'm round for a bit longer at least. On girls and the feet, I have yet to find a girl who finds mine any more than tolerable. Better luck next time...
