Your Fronty??

Postby MSI64 on Sun Jan 27, 2008 12:22 pm

Got up this morning and the weather was glorious, I look out of my window see my Fronty gleaming in the Sunshine and smiled.
I find myself smiling everytime I see my Fronty so my question is this

What is you first thought through your head everytime you see your Fronty???
Cant get the 4x4 out of my blood

My thoughts are usually "why is my car the only one round here that the birds cr*p on?!?!?"

Although the old gal does look good once given a clean, hehe.

I start to imagine all the shenanigans I can get up to in it. More thoughts then thought really. They usually involve mud, extricating stuck vehicles and traversing narrow mountain paths.
I also drink Port and I'm not ashamed to say it!
