Yesterday Naomi and I went car shopping. We wanted to get a VW Golf, but didn’t manage to find one. But at the last secondhand car yard we went to the guy let us look through a copy of autotrader in his office, and search on his computer, and use his phone to call people. And he was searching for a VW for us too. We were surprised at how helpful he was being – but I guess he gets a little bored sitting in the office on his own all evening!<\/p>\n
An hour or so later we asked if we could look up the location of a cinema on google since we were going to go and watch Batman Begins a bit later, but he already knew where the cinema was, and then let us borrow a car from the car yard to drive there. Which was pretty cool since we probably would have missed the film if we’d had to take buses. And after the film we were to give him a call and he’d come and get the car and we could take the bus home. So we did that, except when he got there he drove us home instead.<\/p>\n
That’s certainly more than I would expect from a used car dealer!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
