What dream ??

Nothing but nightmares these last few days.

JCT have had my car for the last 9 days, with 2 days to go. Service, rear pads, rear tyres, first MOT (subject to them finding nothing), paint correction on passenger door (permission received from AM).

Not once has the car thought to phone me. Nor write to me. No postcard. Nothing. Zilch. Nada.

Not a happy bunny at the mo frown

Cars can be so fickle. If it knew you were tooling around in a BMW whilst it was gone, it would never speak to you again! wink

After 4 months of ownership I will still often creep into the garage at night just to look at it! Booked up for the Alpine south tour in September and really looking forward to taking the V8V on that.

You will not be disappointed, they were made for just that. The sound through the tunnels and in the mountains is simply awesome. So far my best holiday ever touring around Europe in my old V8V and I have been fortunate enough to enjoy some amazing places throughout the world.

And I bet everyone here takes a look in the garage and smiles. I do wink

[quote=The Pits
It's an enormous privilege to own one. I now keep a log of every single journey I do in it. I've never done it before but I figure that one day I'll enjoy reading through it. Those memories have cost me a few quid so I might as well preserve them!

Hmm

Di's log...
Mon. Drove to work. Traffic. Drove home. Traffic
Tues. Drove to work. Traffic. Drove home. Traffic.
Weds Drove... feel you are getting the picture now.
Sat. Going shopping so take the Evoque, don't want the V12V in Bluewater. Tony going to valet the Aston.

Tony log...
Sat. Di buggered off shopping, so clean the Aston.
Hmmmm. Why not go for a drive! 40 miles into deepest Kent on motorway for a smudge of performance, then onto the twisty B roads. Life doesn't get better, but wait. Large breasted blonde female hitchhiker spotted. Turns out she's Swedish. Can I Give her a lift to the 5* Hotel she happens to have booked. Well yes, no problem there.
Oh and could I possibly help her with her bag to her room. T'would be rude not to.

An hour later, down to the bar for a well earned drink. Lo and behold, two more Scandinavian well endowed lady guests, (twins), distraught as their shower doesn't work. Could I possibly assist. Well if I must...

Two hours later and I'm thinking I need to get back before Di gets home from shopping.

Another spirited drive home with the grin permanently etched on my face. Into the shower, the water streaming down my face, to find Di hitting me with a wet sponge telling me to wake up.

My interpretation of how I think our log might read. wink


Di

PS Tony gonna kill me when he reads this biggrin

That's not a log. You thought about a change of career into erotic writing?

Di - I like the way you think.

I also like the way you think for Tony, though Tony probably thinks that he thinks for himself.

Think again, matey smile

There's me thinking my antics on the autobahn were a bit racy!
