Whereas north of the Thames, in that hideous land called 'North' nobody has grasped how to pronounce 'bath' or 'grass', as they seem to think it needs to be spelt with an 'r', due to, I think, a tragic misunderstanding of how words sound when pronounced correctly or spending too much time down mines or 'fancying' pigeons to comprehend speaking properly.

:? I think you'll find the majority of people on both sides of the Thames think 'grass' needs to be spelt with an 'r' in it.

The one that gets me is Berkshire - they say it as if it has a A in it - Barkshire - but JERK is spelt with an E so it is BERKSHIRE and all who sail in it.................

These non functioning items were bought on ebay by the same ebayer who is selling them:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CITROEN-2CV-OIL-BREATHER-FILLER-LOMAX-PEMBLETON-ETC-/190840786616?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item2c6eff4eb8

He refers to "WELL KNOWN PARTS RETAILER" selling 'them' for £85.00 - obviously ECAS, however the ones we sell are entirely different and do actually function.

Fine, but I am not pleased to the reference of them being the same as the ones we sell for £84.95 - they are most certainly not.

They don't work as they should. That's why GSF off loaded them.

The most important one, in that they don't produce the required vacuum inside the crankcase.
If they do work, they only function correctly for a short time, from what I heard.

So, just rather expensive oil fillers, in effect... :roll:
