I’m here in the car park

Of the leisure centre…

An aged bimmer drives slowly past
The sun was out this week
My guy in the front is in his netted vest and many a gold chain
Drives past and I notice the faded JAM flag on the aerial

I love my Caribbean peeps

My mental health and wellbeing moment in a crazy world

You better get out at that car park fast...

During the 1972 General Election in the Yard (Michael Manley running against incumbent Prime Minister Hugh Shearer), I was just a kid back in the hills of Eastern Hanover when Shearer and his entourage showed up for a 'political stop'.

I was so impressed with his black Mercedes Benz, featuring a Jamaica Flag flying on the front, that I made a decision right then and there on "owning one of those". It took me until 1994 to achieve "my ambition", but yes, my taste was eventually satisfied.

like I said. Misfit goals.

In reply to VIX

Actually, I did think of becoming Prime Minister too but fell short of that goal.

Yard' s Loss.

I've never driven one but Subarus are one of the most underrated vehicles. The car that stays on the road the longest and kept by the same owner too.

BMW

Black Man Wheels

Transgender VIX is fixated on me ...thats not healthy

Its why he repetitively makes the same comment on his posting.

See why courtesy referred to him as nonintelligent and stupid.

A 40-year-old BMW commands a high value.

I have a one-year-old black BMW...the ultimate driving machine.

I can identify with this. It must have been late autumn or early winter 1989 on an assignment to a customer in North Miami... I flew out of either Bradley or JFK to either FLL or MIA... Picked up the rent-a-car and mounted I-95... Got off at 125th St and pulled into a gas station for hot chocolate. Then I witnessed a sight that almost single-handedly directed my life for the next 25 years!

This guy pulled up to a gas pump, bussed his car door open, stepped out in shorts and t-shirt with reggae riddim blaring! Imagine what I was wearing compared to him, plus the radiant sunshine and 80°F weaher! The decision was instant, and by the summer I had quit my job and moved to Kendall (SW Dade).

Hung out in that state for the next ¼ century.

Back in the day I had a SAAB 9000 Turbo. Loved it!

Hatchback as it were, I once loaded up with some 2 x 4s. To get the hatch properly closed, I had to force the 2 x 4s up against the windshield.

You can figure out the rest. Still think that that's the dumbest thing I've ever done.
