After reading our piece on the “BACK-UP SENSOR”
(I mean, you did read it, didn’t you ?)
Yes, yes, of course you did ! (?)
Well, since that time, you’ve probably been chaffing for some more of the same.
Fortunately, I have a knowledgeable friend who has emailed me the following
FACTS
Lots of the newer cars have a Back-Up Sensor that warns the driver before the rear bumper actually comes in contact with something.
Who invented the backup sensor?
I bet you think it was Ford, maybe GM, how about Chrysler, no, then how about Mercedes Benz? Or possibly the French or Italians.
No! It was a Chinese farmer!
Surprisingly it was not developed by modern automotive engineers using the latest technology. It was disclosed recently that the first to develop the Back-up-Sensor was a Chinese Farmer. His invention was simple and effective. It emits a high-pitch before the vehicle backs into something..
Here’s his first prototype…
As an ex-football fan (Liverpool, if you need to know) who has totally lost interest in the revenue-generation farce that masquerades as the national sport, I was genuinely cheered-up on reading this article in today’s Grauniad.
Footy fans often get bad press, but I would wholeheartedly add my support to these lads and lasses. They are not only supporting their community, but shoving the rigid digit right up the greedy fat cat establishment of the game.

Or do I have that wrong?
Maybe it should be “Writer’s block”

It’s bloody infuriating!
There’s a whole load of ranting, raving and generally whinging on about the state of things that I could be doing, but right at the moment I don’t think that is what either you or I really need, is it?
