Continuing saga

So I’m driving sedately (well, fairly sedately. On the inside lane, at any rate) down the dual carriageway towards Diss, radio singing out, windows happily opened, when suddenly the radio stops in the middle of a piece.

I jab and stab as usual at the radio button, while doing my best to keep my eyes on the road (which was fortunately pretty empty). No avail. The radio refused to work. But at least the windows were operating normally. Oh well. If I can only have one, better to have working windows than a working radio. But both would be nice.

Half a mile later and the radio suddenly comes on, at which point exactly the windows refuse to budge. I keep up the stabbing and jabbing, this time on the window buttons. One shifts, the other refuses to budge.

I mutter darkly under my breath, whilst gazing anxiously at the sky which is clouding over. I just know it’s going to tip down with rain while I have a car window wide open.

But no. By the time I reach home the dormouse under the bonnet has nodded off again and both windows and radio are working. As I’ve said so often before, there is a God after all!
