Default Note left on my windscreen...

came back to my car yesterday after some shopping in glasgow city centre - was parked in st enochs car park - one of my least favourite multi-storeys because it's very tight.

as i walked up to the car i saw that there was a note under the driver's side windscreen wiper - uh-oh i thought - someone has hit the car with their door or something and left me a note at least - but i was wrong - the note said this...

"You are so lucky! I want you're car, enjoy driving it, i am so jealous, i hope i can afford an S2000 one day."

made me smile

I got asked today by the local youngsters if there was only 4 of them in the UK. I was out washing it and I could hear them arguing so they came over to confirm. I assume one of them hading been telling stories.

I replied by saying there's a wee bit more than that, to which the ringleader then said, "see I told you, there's only 80 in the country". Who am I to argue.

I love having a car that people notice.

I was driving through Castlemilk after a night out yesterday morning, and deliberately parked it at my old neighbourhood to stop and get a bottle of juice. I had a couple of teenage girls sitting outside in a Fiat Punto sitting staring at it like it'd just landed from mars. And the fact I got into it in an Armani suit (from the night before but don't tell anyone) helped add to the effect.

oki, it wasn't as good as a girl throwing her panties at it but it made me happy - plus i'm 99.99% sure it's a girl's handwriting - at least that's what i'm telling myself...

2 lassies walked past my garage last night as I was checking the oil.

One of them said "Nice car".

I replied "Thanks".

So if I see her again, I'll be sure to ask about her knickers
