On Thu, 17 Jan 2013 18:20:39 -0000, just as I was about to take a
herb, "ARW" disturbed my reverie and
wrote:

Less than 2 minutes after phoning in to say the car battery was flat I was
on the driveway with my jump leads. The apprentice was still in his dressing
gown and his mother was still in bed.

You should have connected them to the lazy bugger's 'nads. 12v might
not have done much, but jump lead clips are SHARP and the springs are
strong eyes watering.
