I have not but I still had to search that one. Maybe you are a car which did not existed.

Young people keep liking the Maestro, which makes me feel a bit old because they're noticeably younger than I.  The woman at the gym who wanted a chat because she hadn't seen a Maestro in ages and it reminded her of her old Escort.  The two lads in the Vauxhall Viva HB who gave (and got) a thumbs up while I was stuck in traffic.  The school kids arguing about what the Maestro actually is as they were walking past it, one of whom was adamant it was a "weird Mk2 Golf", which isn't that far off the mark really.  It's also great watching people in my rear view at traffic lights trying to surreptituously take a photo before the lights change, many don't manage it and end up holding everyone else up, so I'm causing mild second-hand chaos most days.

I dunno, sometimes I think I'd like something else but most of the time it's a very easy car to live with that other people really like to see, so I reckon I'll stick with it a bit longer since it's doing a good job of reducing stress in one aspect of life.

A while ago I gave all the ex @AnthonyGand other assorted magazines and stuff I've picked up from FoD visits, sf and etc and read to a lady on Facebook.

Today she messaged me re a Dyson Repair, and it seems they inspired her dad!

Got this tune stuck in my head every time I go in the kitchen.

Just back from a superb meal in La Chatre sur le Loir which included wrapping myself around a very nice bottle of red.

Certainly making me grin this evening.

Quelle vintage?

Grinned through most of East Ayrshire today heading for/returning from a family appointment @ Masonhill near Ayr (plus a few side trips around Ayr itself). An awful lot has changed in the past 40 years but not the people. 
(Mind you I'd just love to live in Sorn so I could sorn a car in Sorn)

To be fair it was utterly raining cats and dogs on the way in (so no '99 ice cream at Seafield in Ayr) and it was pitch black on the way back out. Maybe  the rose tinted 'specs  were turbocharged,

(Mind you the Main Event at The Crem had a play out to ELO's Mr Blue Sky and - it was when we came outside - that was the real Grin Moment)

A reminder of the moments that make it all worth it.

 

You can't buy that feeling.

Daughter passed her driving test yesterday - sorted insurance, which was £1000 😬paid, money left the bank, error on the website, need to call, no emails or owt and they don't open until 10:00am. \still daughter is very happy that she'll soon be on the road! 

[Tickman]

Liked for the pass and not the insurance hassle.

£1000 seems about right.

Well that's obviously not real is it? Why would you just happen to be filming that, and he's far too well spoken for a courier. 

Yeah, I know, it's just a light hearted clip, I shouldn't be taking it seriously, but it's just a bit too close to home for my liking.
