Your ideal garage?

What on earth were you going to do with a compressed donkey ?

 

Highly compressed donkeys are a very handy thing for any Andean
expedition. Emergency use only. Haveta watch them though, if you
de-compress them at high altitude.

 

Grimly Curmudgeon's best pigeon dodged hawks and farmers' guns to bring
me the following:

Compressed donkeys are more suitable to the Alps, you need compressed
llamas for the Andes.

 

So my dehydrated yak will be no good then? Curses, all my dessicated
beasts of burden are useless.

Cor - a sudden rush of musty wings has transported me back two and a
half decades. Scary.

 

Get it down from a minaret?

Make it forty years ago and we can pop into Henry's Radio in
Lisle Street for some second hand resistors with short legs.

Ah, I see what you mean. Yes. Unpack one and hfr it to carry the spares.
I was having dreadful thoughts about sneaking along the street at dead of
night slipping them through peoples' letterboxes.

Watch them, from a convenient distance.

 

Your plans for World domination set back a bit then?

Wasn't it in Edge wear rode then?

 

Don't be daft. It's G.W.Smith & co. in Lisle Street.
Henry's Radio is at 303 Edgware Road.

 

That was a branch; Lisle Street was Mecca for war surplus bits, I only
mentioned Henry's coz that was the one that became famous (FSVO).

 

Oh ar, Smith's, that rings a fairly resounding bell; Henry's had just a
branch in Lisle Street, then. There was also that strange shop in
between 'em that flogged nowt but surplus telling bones.

Depends, they'd be just the job in the Himalayas or the Mongolian
Steppe.

 

Ditto for Surplus Supplies at the bottom of Glasgow's Saltmarket. Many
happy hours I spent in there rummaging around old valve kit and
wondering just wtf that / this did.

And the proper Proops in TCR, dim recesses full of stuff like depth
sounders off the ark and ferrules from Moses's staff.

 

Alas I don't want a replacement, as I now like the look of the Sealey
50 Litre one instead, with the 2 pony motor ..

Decisions, decisions ..

You don't get down from a minaret.

 

No mate, it's compressed /heffalumps/ for Alps. Compressed donkeys work
better at lower altitudes, like the Cevennes.
