Subject: RE: BS: What kind of car do u drive
93 Ford Fairmont Ghia station wagon. Runs like a dream. Drinks too much petrol. Much more economical on the open road though, and I can fit all my camping gear in it. However it does have one rather irritating habit.

For the first time ever, I have actually given this car a name - Maggie. That's because when the petrol gets low, a very annoying alarm starts up, and will not stop till I buy some. The sound reminds me of the baby magpies around here going "yark yark yark" at their parents and demanding to be fed - so Maggie she is!
