Happy birthday tiny car
« on: November 04, 2010, 11:39:29 AM »
It's a year since I picked up my A500 sadly christened Tiny Car by my husband.

Just to celebrate someone drove out in front of me on a roundabout near work - thank goodness for the excellent brakes.

To add a bit of surrealness to my day the first job I had to do upon reaching work was to rearrange the letters on the clinic sign so that it didn't say something obscene. My life. Is turning into an episode of Reggie Perrin.

I was thinking the Sunshine Desserts sign in the original series - although now you mention it also very Fawlty Towers. :) My work life also has a touch of the Sunshine Desserts about it as well.

Thanks guys.

Just off to see what wonders await me at the clinic sign this morning. No money to replace it I'm afraid.

Now if it had been that mild I'd have left it.

Door sign still intact this morning and I have arranged for it to be checked next week whilst me and tiny car are up in Hebden Bridge learning to run X-PERT courses (me not tiny car I'm not sure that cars can facilitate empowering group education).
