Back in around, oh, 2000, I hired one of these for a couple of weeks as we had a big family get-together and loads of people coming into town.

We nicknamed it 'the frog', but to be fair, it was surprisingly good to drive and super practical.

I quite liked it.

It's one of those things that it's better to own as you don't have to look at it as you drive!

I'm being facetious of course. I have kids as you all know and practicality trumps everything when you have kids.

Wouldn't want one, but Multiplas look a lot better in black, as the styling doesn't stand out as much.

It's also positively pretty compared to the Nissan Cube, which must surely be the ugliest car of all.

I woke up 10 minutes before my alarm, which also went off at the intended time. Phew!

Well, that was a rather marvellous Grand Prix.

Weather's pretty vile this morning.

I don't fiddle with clocks. Now they've gone forward again it means my car one's right again

If you stop the hands going round, your clocks will be completely accurate twice a day, whereas the way you have them atvthe moment they are never entirely correct.

I wouldn't have three kids because it would mean driving something ridiculous.

My car now is the first one that hasn't been a hatchback or a coupe. Just squish the kids in.

I woke up with the alarm, grabbed fir and said 'the courgettes, and the mint, the mint and the courgettes' and then went back to sleep."

He did the chickens, as he figured they were more important than dream courgettes and mint. In later sleep ramblings I told him Nonna was making the salad. He asked me what was in it and told him , tomatoes, lettuce, beans and fruit.


He asked who Nonna was and I said

"Shhh, Nonna of course ( neither of us have a living grandmother, nor an Italian woman we feel close enough to to call granny!) " and when asked about the fruit in the salad I mumbled something and went silent.


The only other conversation I had with fir started with me saying how much I liked his fingers and ended up entirely non repeatable. I'm even entertaining and rude in my sleep.

I know you lot only have positive things to say about my car, but some others are not as charitable...

It looks like Blinky, if Blinky had four eyes.



I saw one the other day, for the first time in ages. The others must all be dead.

Squishing the kids in doesn't work if you're driving to Brisbane!
