PARKING UP THE WRONG TREE - ROBIN RELIANT FOUND HANGING IN GARDEN
This Robin Reliant appears to have taken a wrong turn after it ended up 15 feet high up in a TREE. The three wheeler, made famous by Delboy and Rodney in Only Fools and Horses, was bizarrely found in the garden of a cottage in Warwickshire. Locals and canal boat users on the adjacent Stratford-upon-Avon Canal were baffled as to which PLONKER placed the car in the large oak. Some pointed to a political statement being made or a modern artist at work. But it was actually deliberately placed there by car enthusiast and house owner Gregan Thompson, 54, for a joke.
