Avensis

I arrived back in Auckland last Tuesday. Dad had arrived back from his trip to the UK. I am staying at Mum and Dad's. After three weeks in Thailand I have been finding it pretty darn cold. As well as spending time with Mum and Dad I have had lunch or dinner with Nana most days. So life has been pretty quiet. I have managed to unpack, mostly. My main goal over the last week was to buy a new car. I have been to a lot of car yards and done a lot of internet searches. I have spoken to many used car salesmen. A few I liked. But the majority do make you feel like they're the lions on the savanna and you're the limping gazelle in the herd. Anyway, I found a car I liked-

I know, I know!  I don't like white either.  But it was right in so many other ways.  It is a Toyota Avensis, 2004, 2L, automatic.  I wanted a manual but they were hard to find. 

Now that I have bought a car I can start to focus on other pressing matters, such as catching up with friends and family and watching TV...
