Emily's adventures in Tintin I

Thank you for your comments on my last post. It's funny how everyone remembers their first car and I'm pleased to see I'm not the only one who names them!
Yesterday was our first proper trip out in Tintin. Being a blue car I decided he'd look his best by the sea so in the morning we headed off to West Bay for some better photos...
He had many an admiring glance and attracted much attention in the carpark.
As usual we had Emily Button tagging along. She thought Tintin was a much prettier car for photos and posed happily in the sun much to the amusement of passers by.
Gorgeous car, gorgeous day, gorgeous sky
I'm so chuffed with this photo.
More cheery colours.
Tintin plays with the boats.

So, where next Tintin?

  10. Tintin is the twin to my first car, Betsy the Blue. My parking was atrocisous back then and I always found it handy to have a vehicle that myself and a few willing souls could actually pick up and move around...
