New Wheels...

Yes, that's right, we have bought a new car!! Test driving and car yard negotiations went down today...the photo looks like our one...R wants to call it Corky...horrible name...no way....


Our new (well, second hand new) is a 2006 Mitsubishi Colt which has done about 30,000kms...it is silver...a tad boring in colour. The one we loved (well, I loved) was a lovely dark corn flower blue but the sad thing was, the upholstery was a horrible 80s beige with plastic wooden trim...nice if you are 90, but not nice when you own a big, dirty brown dog...so we got the silver one, dark interior...
We pick it up tomorrow. We have been so lucky that Nanny has lent us her wee shuttle for the past while, it has been a fab wee car, it would have been a nightmare with no car for so long.
Not much else to say...there is a weather warning...for storms and gale force winds...I hope we have a magnificent thunder and lightening storm...I love storms...it will probably come to nothing and I will be disappointed...
