Three for the price of two.

Post by ronk » Tue Apr 24, 2018 11:25 pm

Before I went on holiday I bought replacement Micro SD cards for the dash cam - three for two deal at Currys.
Today I decided to try one in the 335 - trying to be a smart arse I tried to install it from the drivers seat - whoops! Dropped it (the new card) between the centre console and the passengers seat - I’ve searched for ages and can’t find it. Tiny little black miniature thing on a black carpet what chance do I stand? I don’t fancy taking the seat out as I don’t have full mobility these days.

Try number two card, it won’t load. Tried to format it but although the Mac sees the card I get an error message.

Try the third card and fortunately it Formats ok !

Three for the price of two hasn’t been a bargain after all :( and I bet the cars I’ve lost in the 335 is a good one :rofl:

So I bought a 35is with all the toys to play with. :thumbsup:

I think there’s a black hole under the seat - it seams to have swallowed up the SD card but rejected several of my granddaughters hair slides :rofl:

Put a pair of tights over the end of a hoover nozzle, then hoover away under the seats &regularly check.

It’s light enough to get sucked up and held by the hoover, tights stop it being lost into the hoover.

Good luck!

Great idea !
Wife not too thrilled when I tried to Hoover off her tights.
The 911 operator thought it was funny though.
