It appears the Lady B is now driving a different car. It’s
an Audi A4 and doesn’t suit her at all. The first car I knew her have – a Vauxhall
Astra – didn’t really suit her either. Neither did the third one, which was a
VW Golf. The car which best suited the beguiling Lady B was the second one, the
British racing green mini with two white stripes down the bonnet (‘hood’ to
colonials.) That one had style.
The fact is, you see, Audi A4s have no style at all. They’re
just big and pretentious, which is why they’re indelibly associated in my mind
with estate agents and used car salesmen. The pointy shoe brigade, as Mel calls them. So what on earth is the Lady B doing in one? Is she becoming
middle aged? Should I mourn the fact or not give a damn?
OK, I know the answer to that one.
