A Mechanic Listens to the New Noise

Gordon told the mechanic his car made a strange noise only when his wife was in it.

The mechanic offered a test drive.

Gordon’s wife got into the back seat.

Before they’d left the garage, she asked a question….

Gordon described a squeak, then a rattle, then something like a whistle.

The mechanic asked when it happened.

Only when my wife’s in the car.

His wife, Helen, said that was because she noticed things.

The mechanic suggested a test drive.

Gordon took the passenger seat. Helen sat behind him.

As the mechanic reached for the gear lever, Helen asked whether he’d adjusted his mirrors.

He said he had.

Then she asked about the seat, the route and a bicycle still fifty yards away.

The mechanic stopped before the gate.

Gordon asked whether he’d found the noise.

Not yet, the mechanic said. But I’ve found out why you keep turning the radio up.
