Changing your nappy, mashing your food up, wiping the drool away from your lips, cleaning your keyboard and curtains... sounds like a tough gig.

Or at least use the Tuk Tuk to go to ClientCo

That's a much better choice than that pink Merc SLK you were looking to get...

Ordered a fully loaded A5 Quattro Convertible in Quartz Grey.

Will take up to 20 weeks to deliver!

Lazy arsed Germans.

PS It pumps out tonnes of CO2, so hopefully the weather will get better too.

Dim feels very bitter because it took him so long to become rich but the car he wanted to buy Merc SL55 AMG is now no longer looking good as Merc "revised" design, I liked that car too

Nooo not silver. They don't show the dirt fair enough but give it a wash and a polish and it still looks... ermm.. sliver... Will never look all new and glossy like a dark colour does. Very boring.

If it's good enough for Le Mans....

That blue is vile. Got to be the dark grey then.
