Well, no fancy love story here - but I got a new battery today. I'll see how many more new years it lasts.
Maybe I'll get another vw this year 
Happy new year !

Hover Cars, hover boards...... We've got to October don't we?
Happy New Years All!
I've no "Love of my Life" New Years Party stories but I did begin dating my wife when she was 15 back in the late 1960's!
We were children!!

I'm sure you're happy to have guessed at least "hoverboards" to be around! They may not necessarily hover completely yet but darnit are we getting close!!! |
