Flower Power

We are at the very earliest stages of starting a conversation about buying a new set of wheels [when I say new I mean new to us] as the old girl has given us good service, but things are just starting to go a bit Pete Tong. This may not even happen until next year, but we're looking to see what might tick the boxes.

Now if it was down to me I'd choose this one in a heartbeat.



I'm not sure that Mr GBT entirely agrees with my criteria of blooms and bumblebees as being a logical argument. I am afterall that girl who when told somebody has a new car simply wants to know what colour it is. I couldn't give a fiddler's flute as to the make....I use the same principle when choosing wine....once the price is right then it's down to how pretty the label is, a quirky name or an unusually shaped/coloured bottle. I know I'm a hopeless case aren't I! I saw this delightful car in the Uppark carpark a few days ago.

    1. Pretty much the same arrangement here Kate. I just drive the thing and fill it with fuel!

  3. I’m almost the same way. I do put more thought into a car but not much else. I once won over 100.00 betting horses just by their names and place in line! Sometimes things work out!

    1. We'll end up with something practical. As long as it works and is reliable then that's fine by me. It must have been fab to win on the horses....I won a football sweep at work once and I loathe the game. At that time I worked on an all male section and they were furious...we picked the names out of a hat! Arilx
