Not Norfolk, Surreyish I think. Martin works for Mole Valley Valves. They are currently repeating it on BBC 4 but for some reason Mole Valley Valves has always stuck in my head filling up space that could be used for useful stuff like where have I put those Favorit steering column bushes. They were on the kitchen table for about two weeks and I decided to put them somewhere else before Mrs Yoss started complaining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The mindlessness of it, too. Why you’d steal something rare and recognisable is stupid, and moreso when you can buy an MOT failure shitbox and run that.
