Oh sorry, that wasn't so clear was it? It's a fun run type of thing (either 4km or 8km) raising money for a breast cancer charity, possibly I think it might be held nation wide?

So not how I'd spend my day if I was a mother!

That sounds like a nice day for you - and good on your mum for doing volunteer work too.

Fun run seems like an oxymoron to me, but I hope the event raised a lot of money!

And to me, but some weirdos actually find the idea of a huge group of people all running together. I'm not sure how much they raised, except that I believe it's always a decent amount.

Whenever I see people running I think 'Silly people, why don't they get a car or bus?".

 

[jessy_girl]

I also picked up my new car today which is exciting. I can't wait until I'm not over the limit and can actually drive the thing.

Even I don't mind running at times. Never to get to a place though, that's just silly, I have to agree.

Cool. What type of car is it?

 

[jessy_girl]

Renault Megane RS. My first choice was a Range Rover Sport or failing that an Evoque, but its hard to stretch the budget that far when I'm meant to be saving for a house, this will have to do.

That does sound cool.

Why a range rover sport as your first choice?

Not sure why really, I just like rangies in general and my mum and I did a test drive of a few models and the Sport was my favourite. Maybe someday, but definitely not anytime soon.

Well I hope so! Are you a big car enthusiast?

 

[jessy_girl]

Well I hope so! Are you a big car enthusiast?

No not overly. I appreciate a good car and I know what I like, but beyond that not so much.

I actually still have my old car too, I'm considering replacing it with a Vespa as I had one years ago and I loved it, I'm not sure how practical or feasible that is though.

Well you still have more car know how than me. I know nothing about cars.

What colour is your new car, @jessy_girl? The most important thing for me when it comes to cars!

 

[jessy_girl]

Haha, this is important, I agree. It's a a dark blue colour, not the usual navy colour you see though.

My father made my sister and I do a basics mechanic course so we weren't stranded someday with a flat tyre or at the very least knew the correct terms to use so as to decrease the likelihood of getting ripped off by a mechanic under the assumption we were silly girls.

Well at least it's not something horrible like white.

 

[jessy_girl]

Tell me about it! I once cried all night because I was kindly given a brand new car and it was white.

White car drivers seem to be the worst drivers.

Is red a good colour for a car?

Haha, I would've done the same! They look so... unfinished to me.

It depends on the type of red. There's a certain red that looks really bad and whenever I see it I think to myself, gosh you were so close to having an acceptable colour.

Light red?
