Ironically, yes. But I was minutes short from a very important lunch meeting when I suddenly realised who would be driving and so I shot into a garage to use a vacuum and a car wash.
Its not as if car washes even do a particularly good job, but I was desperate.
In fact the full story is somewhat more embarassing. I intended to drop the aerial, but I was listening to something fairly compelling on Radio 4 so intended to do it at the last moment and then at the last minute got distracted by lighting a cigarette. As the car wash went front to back it smashed the aerial into the car, snapping it so that it was held by only the nylon tooth thingy.
Worried that on the way back the brush was going to grab it and smash it around the car, I opened the window, grabbed the aerial and yanked it into the car, and then did the window back up which closed onto the nylon thingy and so now I was sure that it wouldn\'t be banging around on my paintwork. It only held the window open by about 4mm, so how wet can you get through a gap that size anyway ??
Let me tell you - very b***** wet is the answer !!!!!!!!!!

Sometimes, when you sit at work and think you are having a bad day, it comes to your notice that someone elses day is worse. Thank you for that small but priceless gift Mark.

I bet your luncheon guests saw the funny side!
I recall once going to a VERY important meeting, and en route was stuck under a tree, waiting for a light to change, when a large bird in the tree decided to do what birds do best.
Unfortunately for me, my hair, my interior, and my suit the sunroof was open.
I did not believe ostriches could fly, but by the volume of ordure, it is obviously they can!
