the coolant bottle is!

Orange stuff ain't bad, the R plate 2l 16V megane has its original coolant in it and the bottles still clear and the coolants still the correct orange.

the old rusty coolant stains dont it! If it came apart i would clean it out properly, but obviously it doesnt so like that it stays. If i ever see a good clear one at the scrappies (unlikely) ill nab it.

theres an ASDA about 2 mins away by foot, the locals who buy more shopping than they want to carry just use a trolley all the way back to their house, then dump it round the corner. I drive to Tesco Smile

Im sure this phenomenon is not exclusive to Hatfield?

up here ASDA trolleys have wheels that lock up solid when you leave the car park. So you need to drag it if you want to take it home.

yeah they do here too, have done for about 2 years, still people dont understand this simple concept and try to wheel them over the line. There are a few rogue trollies about without the locking wheel, i guess these were distributed about hatfield like the one in the picture on the day they installed the locking wheels.

Dont even get me started on people who keep making the revolving door stop.
