Exactly, when I said suggestive, you would laugh...not even erotic. But it seems that they don't want trouble with group pressure. Sometimes I tend to think that the human race is a mistake in the universe, like a poison.
Hi Fred
I’m not sure if I could agree with the ‘poison’ diagnosis – there may well be a little something rotten in the state of Denmark, but there is something else in the human race that’s also quite loveable (no, not Lovable) at least, in some humans, and I think that’s what makes the entire experiment worthwhile.
Perhaps it all boils down to the right little groups coming together, mixing the pot a wee bit and producing something appetizing. For instance, though I more or less always worked alone or, if I couldn’t avoid it, with the tightest little group of those who simply had to be around, I still envy you your time in Madrid: I’d love to be there and have something to contribute, but I can’t imagine what today. But, the atmosphere of that plateau… now that is a drug! Always loved making up little scenes, minimal theatre.
You know I bought a Fiesta. Well, today I went to the garage and asked the guy to get rid of the rust and do some paintwork on the 12-year-old Escort I’d left behind. It’s next to worthless on the market, as it is, and too good to scrap. So, after losing a lot of sleep, I decided that since it is ITV-valid until the end of July, the road tax had already been paid for the year, and the boot/trunk is much bigger than the one on the Fiesta, why not keep it? So, that’s what I’m doing. Hope my kids decide to come out and spend time here again this year – at least they can have wheels of their own and won’t have to think of the added expense of renting, which they seldom do. But I love the little new one! It is so directional, great torque and no fuel consumption to cry about. I’d always felt diesels to be nose-heavy (try a 1.9 diesel Megane on a corner!), but not this one. Anyway, as Shakespeare might have declared, he who hath a spare hath no care… as long as either keeps working, he should have added.
Heaven forfend, I might even start doing double car portraits!
