Something to make you smile on boring day at work.

I've been looking for new jobs and one company said that my Cooper wasn't a suitable car to be used as my company car and therefore be paid a car allowance.

I said why on earth not and made sure they realised it was a new BMW MINI not an old Mini.

They finally replied to say that, 'yes, a new Mini Metro' would be acceptable as my company car!!

I put the poor girl right and shall not disclose the name of the company, might get in trouble as they are pretty big.

Calling a MINI a Metro is a capital offence isn't it?
