I wonder what the guy on the phone is saying ?

"Er Boss, you know that Cruiser you just bought, well its just had a little bump. Not too bad. I know this guy on RIBNET that can fix it".

And does that other geezer think he can push it off on his own

With that sort of damage I don't think pushing it off would be a very good idea.......

I bet the skipper was too busy playing with the wrong joystick!!!
