I renew my car every 2 or 3 years and I always seem to make the wrong choice, not at the time, but after a few months I always think I could have done better in my choice:roll:
I will be buying a new car next march and i'm being tempted by the Honda Accord at the moment 8O
Whatever I get, it will be black, where I live getting the right colour is crucial, get the wrong colour and your car is decorated in seagull poo all year round :x _________________ Tomtom Go730T

I've made up my mind and I am going to put a deposit down on a Saab 93 convertable this morning :D
As for the watch sorry I cant afford it now but my son knows a knock off Nigel will that do
I think the saab is an excellent choice and I'm glad you didn't go along with one chauvinistic suggestion about getting a 'girlie' car
I think you will find that you entered a legal binding contract regarding the watch, but because I like you, I will release you from the agreement and decline your offer of a knock off watch, I can understand why you would make such an offer, after all you have just broken my heart and you are trying to let me down gently but I don't do 'knock off' _________________ Tomtom Go730T

I was going to ask for a bright pink saab but it would look too barbie, so I am having a nice mustard colour. Ohh I've got butterflies thinking about it now, its going to take about 6 weeks to get to me though so I will have to keep busy to take my mind off it.
As for the watch, sorry you wont take me up on my offer, it would be a good knock off, it would look real but you might have to take it off now and again to keep your wrist from going green :D
I'm glad you didn't go along with one chauvinistic suggestion about getting a 'girlie' car
I presume you are reffering to my quote
Quote:
.....it's with out a doubt a lady's car.....
Hardly chauvinistic, athough i regard men and women to be equal, unless you haven't noticed we are vastly different, i do not see anything wrong in regarding a women as a lady, i still open doors etc to a "lady" and if the car looks beautiful, curvey and feminine, rather than masculine and aggressive, i call it a "lady's" car.
I take it you can't see a difference but us "oldies" who find it hard to remove our view, that there is a difference between masculine and feminine "looks" - still survive. _________________ TomTom Go 60

Of course it was chauvinistic, a car is a car, regardles of shape or in your opinion feminine looks.
Even opening doors for 'ladies' could be classed by some women as chauvanistic.
Times change fella, it's a fact of life.
As for the rest of your post, is there a web site where you get your patronising remarks from or do they come natually?[/b] _________________ Tomtom Go730T

I'll stick to opening doors to those appreciate it, you can deal with the rest.

Ok "fella" (whatever that means) depends what you call change, times do change but not as much as you make us believe, it would be interesting for a woman to join in the conversation here, as i don't think the majority of women want to be treated just like another man - with total equality meaning not being treated as a "lady".

coachdrivers.com would be a good start, i don't intend to get into a slanging match on a family forum. _________________ TomTom Go 60

Come on guys, chill out. Don't ruin what started out as an interesting Topic.
This sort of sniping is why it took so long to get an Off Topic Forum, and if it carries on, it might just as easily be removed. _________________ Richard

You obviously have an agenda with me, you ALWAYS try to start arguments with me.
You are obviously jealous of coach drivers because you never fail to bring my job up when you attempt to belittle me, did you fail your test? is that the reason.
It's amazing you know (or think you know) what a lady is and yet you don't know what a fella is !!!
You say " i don't intend to get into a slanging match", so why start one then? This proves you have an agenda, otherwise why contradict yourself?

You are now 'us' are you? I'm not "making" anybody believe anything, it is a fact that *SOME* women do not appreciate men like yourself treating them like useless inferior beings, I didn't say *ALL* or the *MAJORITY* of women.

That's OK Mike, I understand and don't intend to get into an unwanted debate, we just differ with our opinions and i have no problem with that. :D
It's good to have discussions and i have no malice or agenda and am not so insensitive to see others might bite.
Thanks for your understanding. 8) _________________ TomTom Go 60
