Okay, I'm back to lift the standards around here. Things have been a bit busy here over the last week but yesterday we decided to get Shelley a new car.
It's a 2006 1500cc Toyota Vitz and it seems to run really well. This is the most modern car we've had in our family fleet. At the moment it's also the tidiest. Not that there's anything wrong with the Batmobile.

The good thing about the Batmobile (it's a very long car) is that all those fancy jeep/ute things that often come crowding up behind you in a demonstration of power, or something, never seem to want to get too close to the Batmobile. I guess they see that the old car has been in a few scrapes in its time.

I've noticed that lately there is a custom of old dead people making quotes on Robert's blog, so I thought that we might have a few quotes, by living people, here on Richard's Bass Bag* this morning.
Let's start with one of your favourites.
"People like to buy frozen peas and they see all the peas in the plastic bag only as a collective. What though do they give to an individual pea?" Andrew Joker.
Let's move right along.
"First of all, let me apologize for all the evil things brought upon people by the Roman Catholic Church. The religious like to talk about a soul. Isn't that a type of fish? Or is that spelt differently?" Catholic Apologist Evil Doctor Richard.

Okay, I expect that's enough excitement for you for one day. Feel free to leave a comment but no one written in Google Translate please. Oh, and The Curmudgeon, a happy comment or two would be nice please.
Ciao tutti.

That's just the kind of corny joke you'd expect from someone who names his blog 'Richard's BassBag'.
No, it's Richard's Bass Bag.*

It's hard to remember the name of insignificant things.
That Vitz looks good. It was clever of you getting it personalised to Richard and Shelley (RS).
Robert would have repainted it, improved the suspension, changed the rings after a rebore and replaced the windscreen by now though.
"Not that there's anything wrong with the Batmobile."
It's hard to agree with that.
Wow Richard (of RBB)! This has been a popular post!
Having my quote must have helped.

Firstly let me apologize for the Catholic church and all its sins.
Yes Andrew, it seems that readers appreciate our quotes."
Evil Doctor Richard
Maybe not given that his spelling of 'apologise' was the American one. This Evil Doctor Richard is obviously a Yank and we can never trust their politics or International commitments.
Firstly let me apologize (using the old English spelling) for all the damage the Catholic church has done. Russia is a country with all the shit that brings. The Catholic church is supposed to be about making people safe, or something like that.
Evil Doctor Richard
Sorry to hear about the 'drama'.
I hope it works out for the best - and from what you've said maybe this is the best outcome.
There's a nice guy out there for her somewhere. Look at how it took so long for us to find the right partners.
Cheers.
Thanks old maye.
Ure wilcom.
Oops. A teipo by me!
I don't know why you thought that.
