Title: My other Car's a Motorcycle
Post by DezertBLU on May 3^rd, 2008, 2:36pm

I'm quite sad right now, it's springtime and finally after 4 years in England being told hubby would get me driving , this was supposed to be the year it actually happened.I am 38 years old and have driven in my own country (USA) since age 16 ...I was a traveller so I have tens of thousands of miles under my belt. I thought since it's been 4 years since I drove I would get a motorcycle to regain my driving confidence.....drive around on it with an L plate for a bit then get my test outta the way.Well unfortunately it's not gone this way...his father has recently passed away (march 13th) so we had to move suddenly here to weardale to settle the estate for his mother as well as to take care of her, as she has mild dementia.My poor bike is still in hartlepool unloved and untouched, and the car is here not cooperating with us, LOL guess it's going to be yet more months till I finally get to have my British Divers Test.Oh well so life goes sometimes, maybe Ill sell the bike for a horse as I don't need to sit a test for that, LOL

Im selling my bike, no hores in sight(not even a sea horse) and my car still hates me, but one bright spark of news we finally bought a remote fob to use, so hopefully were on the path to being back in our scorpio! I think after this long bout of moodiness from the car , I will deffinately have to name it( the car) as it's personality has finally pointed out to me it's deffinately female.

Yes, definitely female. The amount of money they cost proves that ;). My cars aren't lucky enough to get names, the only time they do is when something goes wrong, and they are names which could make a nun blush :-X

My Scorp did kinda have a name, I once named it after a girlfriend I had at school, because like her it was big, tempremental, difficult to get along with but at the same time quite good looking if you could ignore all the faults..

Tough love :(

She'd hit me if she read this, I know it :-/
