What have you been doing today?

I dread the day I finally will have to buy a new car. The last hire car I had was like operating a spaceship compared to my old dinosaur, took me ages to work out how to stop the engine

The days of double de clutch are long gone

Her name is car of course. I wonder how many folk name their cars these days? My Dads always named his, whereas I never have.

I had the Astra Zenica one, (Oxford), Thursday morning. Felt good all day then when I sat down in the evening started getting a bit of a headache, (never get headaches), and started feeling a bit chilly. An hour later I was sweating but felt absolutely freezing and my head felt like it was trapped in a vice. Into a very hot shower for half an hour, 2 paracetemols and an Ibuprofen and into bed. Slept like a log for 11 hours, normally get by on about 5 or 6), and woke up feeling back to normal.
Been told when you get the second one it doesn't affect you as much, if at all.

I’ve just sold the Stevoque but we still have chuggaboom (Golf diesel). Haven’t named the A3 yet though.

Was there any reason behind the naming or was it arbitrary?

My wife has 'pimped' her car with Harry Potter Ministry of Magic emblems. As her car is smaller than mine she calls it 'Little Min'. (It's a Vauxhall Meriva she bought off her dad about 18 months ago). I have a Peugeot Partner she calls Big Bert, "Because he's big and strong compared to Little Min."

It's a Samsung Galaxy S20. Got all sorts of fancy modes but I just use it in Normal.
