Blue is the colour
Monday 25th March 2013
I have been heartened by a recent resurgence of interest in the blue car. The poor thing has been languishing in its garage with seemingly little prospect of getting out on the road. Most people opt for the traditional ivory cars and dismiss the blue one out of hand, despite gentle encouragement from me to take pity on it. Last year it managed only three bookings and, until recently, it had only a single booking for 2013. However, last week brought another firm booking plus a request to view the car, which will hopefully lead to a booking. Perhaps tastes are changing and blue is the new ivory.
Regardless of wedding bookings, I am determined to use the blue car more and shall be taking it out and about this year. It needs to be used and it is great fun to drive. It will even get up to 35 mph with a following wind! So if you see a blue vintage Austin pottering around in St Albans, Redbourn or Hemel Hempstead this summer, give me a wave as you pass by!
