One day at a time

Went to see the futuristic movie Elysium this evening and enjoyed it. The bad guys got their comeuppance and the hero saved the day. I got emotional on the drive home, not directly linked to the movie but linked to the evening.

Picked the new car on Saturday. It all went very smoothly and sales person was very pleasant to deal with.  Bought car mats and a boot tidy, as well as trying to get to grips with the Bluetooth in the car. It's not the most intelligent, I can't find a way to get the car to pick up a call if I'm using an iPod through the USB port. 

Going to be saying goodbye to my traveling companion tomorrow, although we didn't get off to a good start and I may have lost my temper with him occasionally, I will be sorry to say goodbye.  My Polo has been a solid companion, reliable and if not exciting, something that you can rely on to get me around in comfort. I do hope he finds a good home. 

In the end, the car offered was a red one, but otherwise it's the same as the green one I thought I might get. If everything goes to plan I should be able to pick it up on Saturday.

I went car test driving and it was eventful (not for all the right reasons) but one of the positive things to come out of it was a good feeling about the new Suzuki Swift. Don't mind a red, blue or even the new green version.
