On the Scrapheap

As Billy Idle mourned the final demise of the Mighty Mondeo, complete with it's two spanking new tyres that served him well for a whole week, not to mention the AA's incomparable efficiency in returning him home safe and sound a mere 7 hours after he originally called in his breakdown on the way home from work and conveniently just in time for him to set off back again the next day, Gobby felt the least she could do would be to lend him her means of conveyance.

Ever concerned, she also warned Billy that there was only £10 worth of fuel therein which surely could not suffice for the long and arduous journey.

She should not have worried, however, as the ever conscientious Billy duly returned the favour by replacing the exact £10 worth of fuel for her at Doncaster services with just the remaining 33.2 miles home, bless him.

Male Bonding

Gobby presumed, on being roused by the sound of hoovering at 2am, that Billy Idle and Dr. Slim Carbuncle had indeed enjoyed themselves to the full at Barton Beer Festival.

Whilst impressed that Billy had been able to locate the hoover, on coming face to face with a male bonding ménage à trois embrace incorporating Billy, Slim and said hoover she felt her presence decidedly unnecessary.

Although, on re-retiring upstairs she did feel the need to question as to how, in their spectacularly inebriated state, they could be so sure it had indeed been her beer festival glass that they had lamentably smashed to smithereens.
