Expensive day

#1

Post by Steve M »

1) ordered four new tyres for the car
2) trip to vet for dog's annual vaccinations
3) came away with an 'estimate' for some dental work for him.
Suggestions on which of my kidneys I should sell?

Sell the left then you’ll have the right one.

I feel your pain, I had both mine and wife’s car serviced last week! That made my eyes water and did think about selling a kidney, however I then thought I would sell one of my daughters! My thinking was that they are newer therefore would be worth more on the open market.
I have to say though, she’s not as sold on the idea as I am!

Ah, but if he sells the right one he will have what is left.

Yes of course that’s right. I never thought of that. So what’s left then?

Off course if you look at it left to right instead of right to left, the right will be left and the left right. Right.

Steve should have got second hand tyres.
Forgot the dogs vaccs
and gave it some dog biscuits.

Right.
