I'm sad. Today I farewelled my
This was my first-ever car. With two decades and 248,969 km behind it, my little white hatchback had long exceeded its life expectancy.
I've been told that it is being "sent to auction". I think the car dealer might have meant auction in the sense of having its guts ripped out and being squashed like an ant.
Oh sad, sad day. i empathise.
ReplyDeleteOh! It's just like my car, only manual. Well, and the badging. I will have a little cry when he goes to the great auction house in the sky too.
ReplyDeleteOh my... What will Mr Hoppo Bumpo say when he finds, not only a 'new' quilted throw, but also a space where the car should be.???
ReplyDeleteOh How sad! Your trusty friend. I'm sure it knew it was well loved
ReplyDeleteThinking of you on this sad day :(
ReplyDeleteYou never forget your first love - hope the parting wasnt too painful
ReplyDeleteLets hope the 'auction' is quick & painless. I'm so sorry for you loss xo
ReplyDeleteOh no! I tend to get attached to our cars too so it's hard when we get new ones.
ReplyDeleteAw, RIP...I mean, happy auction. Hope that there is no squashing involved :(
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately I think mine (same model, as we discussed) is going out in sympathy. Even more unfortunate is that it's our "good" car.
ReplyDeleteOh - there's just nothing like your first car!
ReplyDeleteHere's a strange thing: I would have sworn I had followed your blog, but then I began to notice you missing from my blog reader! Yikes! Fixed now.
