Hitting the Right Note

We've got a new car! Hooray!
It wasn't meant to be here for another three weeks or so, but the boys in Sunderland must have been working overtime.
And it hasn't come a moment too soon. The old one's needed to be jump started twice in the last three days just because the ignition was left on for 20 minutes or so. That's not the main reason we've changed it though - the 75000 miles on the clock after only three years were also a major factor.


So, after lunch at Livingston with Karlynn and Jim, I picked up Liesl at 4 o'clock and off we went to Bilston to pick up our brand new, cafe latte (beige), Nissan Note with optional extra Nissan Connect.
This is the best bit. It gives you sat-nav, iPod dock, all your music goes on a storage stick and best of all, a bluetooth phone connection. It's great. Oh aye - and the boot's quite quirky too.

We test it out by taking it on a run to Peebles and celebrate with fish and chips beside the river. It's a braw night and a braw run in a braw car. We're sorted!
