Ah! Thank you, kind sir, for your estimable offer of assistance, but you misunderstand. The lack of licence/insurance invalidity/clouds of smoke are not, in fact, preventing me from driving the Mermaid. No, indeed! I stave off potential slings and arrows of the outrageous-fortune variety by trying not to take her very far, topping up her oil and water religiously, driving very carefully indeed, and carrying the temporary permitted-to-drive slip they gave me when I first got my licence, and a police-signed affidavit swearing blind that my licence was stolen and I'm trying to replace it, officer, really I am. With any luck my current tendency to burst into tears if the cosmic wossnames so much as look at me sideways may assist in allowing me to wriggle out of a certain amount of Large Bovine Traffic Cop nastiness. Maybe.

The EL's car is actually already at a garage, I think the Amazing Ray arranged a tow-truck. The EL is apparently perfectly content to operate without it until he gets around to arranging a replacement.

But again, thank you! The way that you witterers leap in with offers of help in situations of my vague fatigue-induced wibbliness is extremely heart-warming.
