Red face Touching, but Misplaced Praise

Thanks Ceedy, but most people can drive a car and (amazingly) I only had to deviate from my route by about 5 miles to pick them up. There will be another detour of a similar distance when I deliver them. So what hardship is an extra 20 miles or so out of almost 900 miles in the 2 round trips?
IMO the praise is due to the members I travel the long distances to see, whether it's because the have mind-boggling knowledge and skills, or simply because they are such great people to spend some time with.
(Besides, you haven't got the wheels yet. And after Mrs Incensed comes home tomorrow and finds another set of wheels in the living room - who knows?

Going to Newcastle is nice, but asking someone to find Sherborne is a bit much, it's down a lane off a lane, behind some bushes innit....
