I've not done anything to the volvo today, apart from drive it.

I have washed, polished & waxed my girlfriends Astra, getting it ready for a car show/cruise tomorrow night. I'll be carrying on with it tomorrow.

Today me and my Volvo drove the 50 mile journey to Glasgow. There it sat in the car park most of the day. I visited it twice to collect my charts and navigation triangles. During the day i also had a wee gander from the 8th floor window at it, and i turned the lights on and off with the key (because it was fun). After that i done the return 50m journey with a cheeky wee stop for tyres.

After i got home i packed the boot with all the crap i don't need to go walking with, i drove to the place i walk and i went a walk. After my walk i went back to the Volvo, sat in the boot for a while drinking some lucozade and reading the paper that i got during my pit stop earlier in the day. Got home and i went to visit my Mum then Gran and Grandad, after that it was home for me and the Ovlov of my life is in the drive making my old Punto look like ****.

I bet the remaining few miles of your journey were more comfortable,although how did you manage not to damage the rims,driving without tyres...??...

Car has been sitting for two days. Put a tenner in it (7.35 litres, 1.35.9 per litre) Saving the pennies.

I have went out to remove the bird droppings which were on the bonnet and roof, and the majority of the car

...just closed the jammed open sun roof via the manual option on my old 940 estate...taking my dirty brick to the car wash now which I believe to be the right order of things.

Only time will tell if there is a sequel or prequel to this story line.
