I have been on the Internet to find out how much my Volvo S60 D5 Special Edition is worth. Absence certainly makes the heart grow fonder, and I'm now missing 'the Beast' with a passion. She must be very lonely in that isolated garage on the outskirts of Florence. A postcard would be nice, or at least a telephone call home.
Maybe the garage staff will read this and take a photograph to send me by email? Well, maybe they would if their English was good enough to read this Blog. Mind you, I suspect that their English is better than my Italian. 'The Beast' is going to have a good clean and polish when she eventually returns home. I shall even treat her to a hoover and have that Tom-tom Satellite Navigation System wired in properly.
At Lloyds Motors in Aberaeron on the Welsh coast, I know that she would be thoroughly cleaned before I take possession. I wonder if the Volvo Dealership in Firenze will shape up and meet the same exacting standards of Customer Care that I enjoy in Wales? The staff at Lloyd Motors even thoroughly clean the Alloy Wheels. Meanwhile I am reduced to cadging a lift from the family and dossing down for a few hours in town. It's not too bad, as summer is here. It's not as hot as Firenze or Accra; but it was hot enough today for me to seek shade beneath a tree while I passed some time sat on a bench watching the world go by.
