Last Tuesday on my way back home from a customer I had the chance to have a quick stop at a very special car dealer near the route. This dealer - Tamsen - sells dreamcars, like Bentley, Maserati, Ferrari, Lamborghini, and naturally my favorite: Aston Martin.

So I took a look at some V8 Vantage, N420, DB9, DBS (both also as Volante), and Rapide. Sadly my preferred V12 Vantage hasn't been there. But I took place in the N420 and it fits like a glove. What a great feeling, together with the smell of the leather.

I don't think I'll ever own one, even the older ones are by far too expensive for my income. But there's still the dream ... *sigh*

Sometimes life shows its sweet sides. Yestersay we had a congested canalization. The plumbers came immediately and helped until the evening. So we gave them some gratuities for their helpful effort.

As an impact I forgot my purse when I've been shopping this morning. But a lady helped me immediately, without wanting me to show my ID card or something like that. Great, so much confidence.

So I immediately fetched my money from home, bought a flower bouquet, and drove to the lady. She really has been glad about my flowers and that her confidence has been right. Additionally her man is a well-known collector of oldtimers. He guided my through his great collection of Maybachs, Rolls-Royces, Mercedeces, and Saab. What a wonderful event at the end of the year.

Thanks a lot to both.
