MY NEW CAR

PHOTO HUNTERS and
ROUND ROBINS are here


Yesterday I said good bye to my car with which I drove around for 7 years. Cat Arthur apparently is very happy to get rid off it. Me too !



and here is the new one, also a Opel Corsa with a lot of new stuff which I don't really need.
When I picked up the car, inside was a bottle of champagne and a beautiful flower bouquet !



Today of course I will drive around and try it out !

SHOW & TELL

More participants are here at Kelly's Show and tell Friday

This time I really have something special to show (and tell) ! Last tuesday I went shopping and when I put my bag in the booth (trunk) suddenly the door banged on my head, exactly over my eyebrow and I was more than lucky that my glasses didn't break and hurt my eye. I heard birds singing and was a little knocked out, then climbed back in my car and returned home. I was swearing (nobody heard it anyway) and furious against this bloody car ! It was 7 years old now and unfortunately looked still very good and had only 25.000 km on the counter ! But I also had troubles when I wanted to close the doors I had to click 5 times on the remote control and sometimes I found the car still open when I came back, a ghost had opened it again !

While I was driving I also heard a strange noise when I used the brakes. At home I used an ombrella, which was laying around to keep the door open to take my shopping bag out.

Still furious and with a hurting eye now, I told Mr. Gattino that I was fat up with this car and when one trouble starts others will follow that's for sure !

Opel just had made publicity for selling 2000 cars they had in stock to a very interesting price, so we went there right away and one hour later came out with this !





or rather I will get it this afternoon !! Meanwhile my eye has turned blue , it really fits to my new car !

I also celebrate the "Gotcha day" (Blogging cats call the day they arrived in their homes like this)
It was today exactly 1 year ago, I brought this little kitten home and we called her Rosie !



Rosie when she arrived



and Rosie today (more about Rosie is here

I think my Friday 13 will be a very nice day. The car seller asked me twice if I was sure to want my car on a Friday 13 !!
