Yeah, that's what I'm talking about.
Them bakers. Changing the damned recipe, to suit themselves.
Evil, pure evil. Them J.C.'s...
But I think they're getting smaller...
Is a lesser evil better than a big evil.
What is the best 'evil' in all the world...
If you believe in 'evil', of course...
Which I don't.
But that's by the by...just another concept some like to chew over...and over...

Any American car, the Europeans had to design a new transmission for every new car they made and seldom got it right. The Americans would design a transmission, develop it, and then put the same transmission in everything, so everything had a good transmission.

A fly swatter, or gasoline. "Raid Wasp and Hornet spray" seems to work OK, especially on a nest.

So, what little run-around automatic car do you suggest ?

Eat them, "Everything I eat turns to shit", since Java Cakes start out that way, there is less processing.

I am only familiar with older Ford cars, so anything with the C-6 automatic is good as far as the transmission, but they are usually larger heavier cars.

Thanks. I bought Rentokil Wasp Killer Powder. But thought better of it. Getting the professionals in. Can't see a nest; but they are in my deceased parents' house - somewhere in the wall space. I see them going in; between the bricks.
What with that and a leaky cistern - probably due to a worn out washer - I can't wait to get rid of the responsibility.

Yeah, that's what I thought - large and heavy. Not for me, ta. Gonna have to take a few trial runs, I guess.

My daughter and her Husband were in a car crash in a 2013 Honda civic, at the end of Jan. and luckily the other car was about the same size. They both survived but are still recuperating, 3 kids were in the back seat and only suffered brush burns from the seat belts. If they had been in a larger heavier car, they might not have been injured as badly, and the other car would have just bounced off.
