  1. I used to live next door to Dr Wilkinson. His wife had a friend drop off leftovers to feed to her dogs after knocking off from the Chinese restaurant she worked at. She’d leave dim sims and spring rolls in a bag hanging off the front door.

    Dr and Mrs Wilkinson have at least one son who was a little younger than me. He thought that I was playing pranks and leaving the treats to piss him off. 3 or 4 times a week I would find the Chinese goodies on my front lawn where young Mr Wilkinson had tossed them in retaliation to my imagined joke.

    Eventually i guess Mrs Wilkinson (who makes more money than her surgeon husband by writing Mills and Boon novels) started wondering where all the dim sims had gone, her dogs were probably getting hungry. The dim sims stopped appearing on the lawn. Then, a few days later young Wilkinson popped over to offer an apology. His peace offering was a 6 pack of VB. I was not impressed by the choice of beer but what can I say, i probably drank them at 5 minute intervals through a beer bong.

    We never really did strike up a neighborly rapport, and after reading that article I’m not about to have a change of heart and decide they’re a lovely bunch. I remain bemused.

  2. let out an inward groan when i saw this article. I’ve given him my opinion on his ride out on the road before.
    what i think is ironic is that he parks it behind a ‘fully sik’ skyline. His VB drinking sons? So much for giving kids safe cars.

  3. Contest: first to whack a B&C sticker on that Hummer (and posts a pic) wins their choice of six pack from me.

  4. LOL done, Ben where are those stickers you promised me!!

    Quick, there’s beer involved.

  6. I now don’t feel so bad about dad’s Valiant Safari. The good doctors pissy tin can has nothing on that old beast. Everything bounced off it.
