Hope for the next generation

Post by Charles » Fri May 10, 2019 10:20 pm

Just dropped my daughter's new boyfriend at the station and he not only recognised but also understood the difference between a BMW and an ALPINA.

The lad's just gone up in my estimation but he's still not allowed within three feet of my girl!

Certainly does, Brian :!:

Not only do I now have to deal with boyfriends but both girls passed their driving tests within a day of each other last month. Don't even ask me about insurance premiums... 😱

Your daughter definitely primed him to pretend he knew about Alpinas.
