The Vespa Guy


The second long weekend is about to commence. Who says commence now days, oh dear my age is starting to ooze through the cracks. I took a half day today as needed to get a new battery for Suzette and a new headlight globe for Sophia. So off I went this afternoon, first to Kwik-Fit for a battery, R850 later, then to Vespa in Wynburg and at Vespa I was presently surprised as I paid only R90 to get Sophia back up to shape. I had a good chat with Guy from Vespa South Africa's workshop in Wynburg while my Sophia got lovely repaired by Andrew. Thank you Vespa.
