Tow-truck

My day started with a visit from the AA. More car troubles. Back to the garage. So annoying!

Ignition

For a while now my car has had an intermittent problem not starting properly. Finally got it fixed today! 

~ A year ago today I was reading fan fiction ~ 

Tiny Little Car

Seen in our Roman 'hood, around the corner from our apartment. I love the cobbled streets, creeper-covered walls, graffiti and adorable automobiles.

~ A year ago today I was walking in the sunshine ~

Close to Empty

I've done a lot of driving in the last week or so. Must remember to fill up tomorrow.
~ A year ago today I was attending a tea party ~ 

Stop

My car's thermometer informed me it was 37 degrees in a covered underground parking lot this afternoon. Way hotter outside. The radio station happened to be scrolling 'stop'. Seemed appropriate! 
~ A year ago today my shoulder was sore ~ 

Bumper

I got stuck in traffic on the way home tonight. It was 7pm and getting dark, cloud swirling on the mountain.
~ A year ago today I was looking at flowers ~ 

Koeberg Road

I did a lot of driving today. My car had to go to the mechanic all the way out in Montague Gardens. Along Koeberg Road four times!
~ A year ago today the wind was blowing ~ 

+ -

One thing I love about my car is the control for the sound system on the steering wheel. Today I went for loud.
~ A year ago today I was lunching on salad ~ 

Tread

I had a flat today. I'd been meaning to get my tyres looked at anyway. A couple of hours later I had my car back on the road, all sorted with new wheels.
~ A year ago today I prepared fish for supper ~ 

Whoops

This morning there was an almighty racket outside and the whole neighbourhood came out to see what had happened. A car had crashed right through someone's wall! Luckily the driver was unhurt, but - eeek! - poor car, poor wall.
~ A year ago today I was admiring a crocheted throw ~ 

Grime

My car was filthy dirty... I gave it a much-needed wash this afternoon.
~ A year ago today I was having a picnic ~ 

Driving Rain

There was something of a torrential downpour at 5 o'clock today. Heavy traffic on the way home. [Guest photographer: Michele]
~ A year ago today I had supper with my brother ~

Russel St

This morning in the traffic, on my way to work. I hate getting up in the dark, but at least it wasn't raining today.
~ A year ago today I got my socks ~

Way Out

More like No Way Out when it comes to price increases. Filled up after work... petrol going up 71c at midnight.
~ A year ago today I was playing with pendants ~

M3

I did a fair bit of driving around today. Went through this particular intersection five times, and each one was a wait.
~ A year ago today I was on the open road ~

Grudge

Feels like lately I'm spending way too much time driving around garages looking for parking. Everywhere is so busy! Annoying me today was the one at the gym which was choc-a-block full.
~ A year ago today I was catching up on gossip online ~

Roeland

My new commute to and from work is even shorter than the old one, but is seriously lacking in interest. Particularly grey and grim on a rainy afternoon.
~ A year ago today I was super-busy at work ~

Smooth

I got my car professionally polished today. They did a great job!
~ A year ago today I was at the Waterfront ~

Wheels

Finally got my car back this afternoon. Starter-motor and battery replaced. So happy to be mobile again :)
~ A year ago today there was a rainbow in town ~

Insurance

My car wouldn't start this morning so I had to dig up my warranty documents (luckily the car is is still covered - just!) and get towed to the garage. Not fixed yet. What a huge nuisance it all is.
~ A year ago today I was getting treats from my favourite bakery ~
