I apologise OK!
Since booking convertibles to test drive, it hasn't stopped raining.

Open top, open heavens
Just booked some convertibles to test drive over the summer months so that should guarantee a couple of weeks of rain!
So my advice would be, if you're planning to go camping during the summer avoid the first two weeks in July!

As easy as ABC
For the life of me I don't get it!
These genius designers come up with brilliant cars that promise you the earth and then someone in the marketing department gives it a name that lacks even the slightest bit of inspiration.
Admittedly, some companies provide us with vehicles that carry pronunciation instructions because they are so complicated, but surely all cars these days deserve a name not a letter and a number.

Cop that!
I know traffic police have a place in our world but I'm just not quite sure where!
I was driving along the M5 at the weekend and saw thousands of tail-lights ahead of me - now that either spells crash or cop. On this occasion, it was the latter. As cars hammered on their brakes in front of me there was almost three pile-ups. Drivers veered from that “naughty” outside lane to the inside so the officer wouldn't spot them and all common sense and driving skills seemed to go wandering.
Admittedly, the traffic stayed at a sensible 70mph as the officer toyed with his followers - speeding up to 73mph and then slowing down again… more tail-lights.
The ironic thing was that after the traffic cop turned off the motorway, a Beamer went hammering passed me in the outside lane and must have been pushing the ton-up. By which time, the police were nowhere to be seen.

It's all a blur
I'm not sure if it's just me or not, but if you squint really hard do all small city cars morph into one nowadays?
Parking crisis
I was at a rather famous supermarket at the weekend and watched a young guy in a big people carrier trying somewhat unsuccessfully to reverse into a tight parking space.
After two failed attempts his wife swopped seats with him and reversed perfectly into the space.
The most amusing part of this yarn though came as a pensioner walked by and raised his eyebrows in horror at the young man - now where's the respect for the younger generation there then!
