They know when dont they

Last Friday morning was was supposed to be a casual start to our annual trip to a small beer festival in the New Forest held at a pub with a campsite behind it. Ferry and Campsite all booked and paid for. At 10.30 am I went out to turn the Bedford round onto the drive to give it a wash and check all required items where on board. At 10.40 I am still looking at the oil light waiting for it to go out. The oil pick up has been erratic, sometimes taking over a minute since we bought Bengy but has always come up in the end. Not today and we are booked on a 16.30 ferry. I have been looking out for another oil pump but actually got another engine with 49k on it to fit this winter. 11.00am loading my tools in the car to go and take the pump out of this engine which I store in a garage 4 miles away. Just after 2pm I have Bengy running and the oil light is going out but the ignition timing is only thereabouts. We have to leave at 3.30 to get the ferry so a quick once round the block and throw the spanners in the garage and now start the checks for the trip..... This was the 5th weekend away this summer but the first off the island so the most expensive to go wrong. They know don't they.
Regards Andy
