A. bought our new car yesterday. We went west of London to have a look at the car which took us nearly an hour to get there. A. took the Golf for a spin and it was love on first sight. Airco, ABS and cruise control and in my fav color: grey! We are happy! [Although it is not my Red Monster…] It’s four years old so I won’t have to die of guilt if I would damage it driving the freaky narrow streets of London. I’m happy that we will get rid of the Lexus now, it’s totally not my thing, I’ve called it the ‘Pimp-my-Ride’ car. It’s tacky… Just tacky!
[I wrote this earlier in another post about driving in London: “two lanes but cars parked on either side and the space that’s left in the middle only is about the width of ONE car, can you imagine driving in these conditions? If a car approaches you, you will have to move into the empty gaps on your side of the road just to get pass each other, or he stops for you in a gap on his side. If there is none, then you will have to drive all the way back until you’ve found one…”]
Specs:
Diesel, 5 Door Hatchback, Manual, Metallic Grey. ABS, Air conditioning, Central locking, 4 x Electric Windows, Electric Mirrors, CD Player, Cruise Control, Multi-functional steering wheel, 12 Months MOT, Good condition, Full VW Service history.

New Porsche Swap
I need to sleep but I’m busy transferring files from one LaCie to another… My old Porsche gave up on me today, giving me errors and although I am busy sorting out my website it’s best not to wait until the engine runs out of power… So therefore I decided to format the new Porsche and transfer all the files from the old one onto the new one.
It’s good because I also sort out all the files that I have copied double; I sometimes do when I’m too lazy to proper organise and structure my backups. So all is much better lately. And while waiting and checking on stuff, copying about 210Gb and getting bored by watching progress bars I’d better use my time to write a bit on here instead.
I love watching progress bars but not at this hour when I should be in bed… Wish it was done so I could format my old Porsche and use a clean wiped external FiWi HD to collect a lot more crap
