Here's the proud owner of a used 2006 car. He will be a commuter on a longer distance than before; in his old job, it was comfortable to take the tube. As we rely on the promise of his future boss, he hasn't signed a contract yet. But in Hamburg, a spoken contract is as powerful as a written one -- at least among traditional merchants. So we are confident and went out to the car trade. There has to be a new car after the disgraceful collaps the other day. 
And in order to cover the sad view of the faded varnish, I put my korak on our poor old vehicle that somehow is still dear to me after 12 years and some wonderful journeys... On Monday, we'll get a new registration and licence plates, and we can start.
Beautiful autumn day. Saw this on the way home.

Robbie, the trees are maple and rowan.
Congratulations on the new car! I like the photo of your korak on the old car. I know how you feel, I was sad when we sold our old honda civic because I also had happy memories associated with it, including one night when I was able to get to my children in a blizzard when almost no one else could get through.
congrats! i love the spirit of the cloth on the old car.... we have those golden maples here too!
Ah, yes. Trading in old cars almost always generate mixed feelings because of the memories living in the vehicle.
So where are YOU? You haven't posted in 3 days, either.
