A new year has ticked over yet again and so far '13' has been a lucky number for us. While things have been very quiet on the build front, it hasn't been the case in other areas of our life. In fact all going well 2013 just may go down as a 'Great' rather than good year.
However,
Sadly our old car (the Cressida) has officially been retired and awaiting a new life as parts. We attempted to get her serviced (in the hope of getting another 6 -12 months out of her) only to learn she is very sick and not easily mended.
As silly as this may sound, we will miss the old gal. David bought her new in 1989 when she was a 'Luxury' vehicle (can you imagine!) and she has been an absolute star! When it comes to the actual disposal I will have to arrange it on a day David isn't around as I know it won't be easy for him to say 'Goodbye' due to all the good memories she holds.
What has been easy is driving our spanking new Golf Wagon home from the Volkswagen showroom! The jump from a 1989 vehicle to a 2013 has been dramatic to say the least. I also think she looks great parked outside our new (old) house.
I hope 2013 has began well for you too :)
Very spunky! Love the colour :)
