Bad news always come in threes

Bad news always come in threes I’ve been told. Firstly was Mikey B’s decision to leave the team, and then, last week was the sad departure of the life of our newly purchased ambulance whose life destiny should have been to serve the poor and needy in The Gambia. Unfortunately England has too many young people with nothing better to do than to destroy other people’s property. The ambulance was parked round the back of my friends house on the street whilst the paperwork, MoT and insurance was being arranged. Returning home one day my friend found the ambulance to be missing! After calling the police, the council and the car pound, no one had any record of it. A couple of days passed, an email arrived from the car pound claiming the ‘abandoned and vandalised(apparently they found all the windows smashed and have pictures as proof we await to see.)’ vehicle had been towed away by then and crushed! Currently we are left without much choice but to accept what happened as technically, without an Mot and road tax they have every right to remove and destroy it. What will be the third I wonder?
