The weather was so nice today, and we wanted to go for a walk. We took our dear old car to the gas station and a wash, but after leaving it, the car had serious problems. We thought it would just have to get dry and we would have to take a little ride and let the motor get warm. But the car went on strike right in front of a car trade and did not move one step further. J just got it out of the trafic safely.I started laughing, it was irony! But J did not find that funny at all. Tomorrow, he will be going for a second talk with one of the companies he applied for, but he will not open the champagne bottle unless he signs a contract tomorrow.
Although this was an Opel car trade, the mechanics had a look into the motor, but did not know what to do. So we had to call the Volkswagen expert, and he found the reason for the breakdown and exchanged a spare part. We rode off happily after 2 hours, as the sun went down and it was getting really cold. So much about the walk.

Thanks for visiting my blog today Eva. I stayed most of the time in Schleswig, where everybody greets with "moin" and like you said at any time of the day.
send you a hug from Florida,where we are having a very unusual hot weather.
That's what I don't miss about car ownership. :)
