You can't have brought it if you still haven't picked it up.

You can bring it on Thursday.

Haha.

I think she needs a wash:

Not technically mine, however this is my Granddad's 1932 Austin 7.

It's been hand-rebuilt by him from the ground up, I remember panels etc being repainted and refitted when I was just a little nipper.

Thought it'd be interesting to share, anyway. Always draws lots of positive attention.

Quick pic of me in the wife's car, I told her I wouldn't be seen dead driving it so this seemed best compromise

Was it foggy?

No, but it was dark enough for the "coming home" lights to be on when I got out of the car.

Coming home lights = DRL , Front Fog, and Rear Tail lamps on.

Yep, for no reason other than stupidly placed pillars, the end two spots on each odd numbered level of that multi-storey is actually outside, but is wider than most disabled bays.

I always try and park in one where possible.

I parked in one at my local Sainsburys - as I always do - and came out to an abusive note about BMW drivers and disabled spaces and how i should be ashamed.

It wasn't a disabled space..

I fear for the safety of other road users if these people are seeing disabled signs that don't exist.
