Driving on

 I suppose we all remember our first car. For me it was a geriatric Morris 1000 that lasted me 3 years, oddly management also had an old Moggy thou. In reality her first proper car was an ex MOD Cavalier we bought just after she passed her test which carried her everywhere for years.

Branwen has Mr Tick an elderly Citroen AX which I bought so the three of them could learn to drive, which she immediately announced was hers. The AX is an ideal learners car being blessed with not too much power and holding the road like a limpet.

Taliesin of course had to have something of his own, in fairness he allready has a discovery he bought earlier this year, trouble is you could almost buy a house for what it would cost to insure. So now he has done rather a good deal on a Renault Clio, not any Clio though this one looks err striking.

It looks like it crashed into an accessory shop and one of everything stuck to it. 

His sisters have been warned, the word chav is banned. He is not to be bought hoodies as a gift, neither is he to be given a hat to wear backwards.

This is all very well but someone has to drive it home and someone is looking awfully like me.

But thats not the biggest point, our drive is more suited to Land Rover than Low rider and at 10 PM last night the digger was still running and operations were still ongoing. MacTalpine construction was resurfacing our drive so his car could drive down it.
