After six and a half years it was time to change the car. Always a bit of a grudge purchase; dealing with car salesman is not a favourite activity of mine. This time I sold our Skoda first then ordered the next car. This left us a gap of a few weeks so we hired a Ford. It is of its type: looks ludicrously enormous from the outside, offers surprisingly little space inside. On a long trip Milo ending up having to share the front foot-well with Danielle. She managed to get comfy, he did too but looked put-upon for most of the trip.
Today we parked the car in the car park and were ready to start a walk. We looked around for Milo, where was he? He had found a Skoda, similar to our old one, and sat next to it. It does not take too much anthropomorphism to imagine him saying "please can we have the old car back, and I can be comfy again?"
