So we went to Mums on Saturday night and on the way decided to stop and look at a car yard. Next thing I know we are transferring all our stuff into one of these beautiful new Holden Captiva's and leaving my car at the dealership.
What???? Yes they let us take this car for the weekend and I have to return it 'sometime' today.
It is very nice to drive, the only hiccup we had was a flat tyre last night on the way home from Rosebud. Pitch black, middle of nowhere, no torch in the glovebox (I am sure there is one in mine and if not will be putting in there this afternoon), no owners manual about where the spare is and the relevant tools needed. Anyway we figured it out in the freezing cold darkness and when we were almost done a nice man stopped to ask if we needed assistance.....ummm no we needed you 5 minutes ago to shine your lights on us but we are all good now. Nice to know people still stop to help though.
Charlie sat in her carseat the whole time singing her little songs and I was feeding her savoy biscuits to keep her happy. She is such a good girl, nothing really seems to faze her. It was cold, it was dark, it was her dinner time and she sat there for 30 minutes without so much as a grizzle. Hopefully I will get the car back to the dealership without incident today.
Stay tuned for news of what we end up buying.
As you can see Charlie is quite comfortable in it.
