Every time I put my truck in for a major service, they wash it. This saves me the trouble and (minimal) expense of arranging to have the thing washed; so it tends to go dirty for up to six months.
I must admit it gets pretty disgusting, both inside and out. The headlights can’t pierce the crust of mud, and the windows appear to have new life forms living on them. Still, I have a service coming up soon so was planning to wait till then. But the attitude of the monkeys at the zoo made me change my mind.
This is disgusting! I am not sullying my paws on this muck:

Looks like filth, smells like filth, tastes like filth! Yum!

Suitably embarrassed, I had my truck washed today.

2012-11-09| Spike saysThere was a sign indicating we should not leave the car; but this is Thailand and we don’t pay much attention to such things.

2012-11-09| Grant saysObvious Spanky. I was, as always, just monkeying about. And the miserable sod wouldn’t throw me half an apple…
