"CAR"

We bought your first car for you about four or five weeks before you got your licence. It was an old Commodore VS but it was in reasonable condition.
I think that having a car was like a 'red rag to a bull' with you though because, three weeks before you even got your licence, you decided to drive up to Marist Sion to say hello to your mates.
What you often forgot was that a lot of people knew us and also knew you!
Sian came home and saw that your car was missing so she immediately thought it had been stolen. After texting Dad and I to see if we knew where it was, she decided that perhaps YOU had the car!
How right she was!!
Several people saw you and reported back to us!! Sometimes you were not so bright for a 'clever clogs'!
Your next car was also a Commodore but it was a newer model. You took out a loan for this car and religiously made repayments right up until the day you died! This car remained cleaner than the old one...you obviously loved it!! I remember you and Amber polishing it one evening. It got so dark that you couldn't see what you were doing and ended up with streaks all over it the next day.
Like me, you loved driving more than you loved cars!! You would drive just for the sake of driving and finding 'new' places. Often on these jaunts you would be accompanied by your mates.
Good times and great fun!!
