My new baby...

[deannawol]

I swear I now own the worlds most religious car! It has two full statuettes of Lourdes water, a rosary bead and prayers. However, I now own my own tire pressure gauge. Aren't I lucky?

My car is apparently aqua coloured and is really pretty. I drove it around the estates here and it handles really well, but without tax and insurance that's about as far as I'm comfortable taking it. I'm hoping that tax is through by this time next week so I can actually take it out on the roads.

My aunt came up today (with one thing of Lourdes water and the rosary beads) and has pretty much told me to have the car blessed. All this reminded me of a quote I heard during the week.

"My mum always used to say 'let jesus be your co-pilot' but I say if jesus is your co-pilot, switch seats!"

Or at least it was something like that. Now do you think I can remember where I heard it? If anyone can help, please let me know!

i do wander why you say "apparently" about the colour.

Aqua says blueish to me and it's sorta like a mint green.

Ah Aqua green rather than Agua Blue. fair enough!

Congrats!

You don't actually need to have your tax disc, though - assuming you got stopped, just tell them "New car. New car!!!" and they'll give you a week to produce it at a police station.
