    I had no idea that President Adams went on crusades. Must have missed that class.

    Very presidential!
    The Presidential bar is set pretty low these days.

    Shortest American President ;)

    I just splurged and bought the closest thing to a Bond(like) car I could lay my budget-restricted hands on. Needless to say I'm very happy even though, you know, no ejection seat or goon-be-gone roof... :v

    I have a new all singing and dancing cellphone - welcome to the 21st century my family have said :))

    My technophobia (if that is a word) is legendary but hopefully once I have got used to it I can start to post some pics from Mactan.
    Yeah, well, sometimes nothin' can be a real cool hand.

    It's a Moto G4 - a gift from Mrs CHB for our 11th wedding anniversary. I'm busy getting apps and finding my way round everything - it's not as difficult as I thought.

    I too have "complicated" relationship with technology and I haven't figured out how to post my own photos on the net. I'm looking forward to see your photos from the Philiphines :)

    It's 6 years newer than my previous car so it's possible the technology has advanced to the point that the ABS on THIS one does not suck. First snowfall will tell. :D
    Oh, and no Wankel- that's old school Mazda. ;)

    What type of car is your new Bondmobile, Chrisall?
    My knowledge of cars is what a polite person would call "unimpressive". :#
  • chrisisallchrisisall Western Mass, USAPosts: 9,061MI6 Agent
    It's a Mazda 3. Kind of like a poor man's Aston Martin. :))

    Hey, if I REALLY wanted an Aston Martin, I could HAVE one.
    But then, I'd have nowhere to live.... and no Wife.... ?:)

    From behind the wheel, ever car I've ever owned has
    Been an Aston or a Lotus ! ( in my mind at least )

    "Nice car."

    If I bought a Mazda in the future, it'd probably be the current generation MX-5/Miata.
    Such a bloody beautiful car and the fact that you have the ability to put a V8 in it is enough to warrant its (hopefully much lower) price tag in the future.
    a reasonable rate of return

    It is that. But having a family as I do it's not somewhere I can go. Still, I happy with what I got.

    Situations differ and seeing yours you made the best call possible.
    From what I've seen, it's a very good car.
    Drive it in good health!

    How is the election going, Higgins?
    Dull and dignified, I hope?
  • HigginsHiggins GermanyPosts: 16,618MI6 Agent
    Voted this morning , thanks.

    Pity that the populists will get over 10% and we'll hear some downright Nazis speaking in the Bundestag very soon :#

    Had one from AFD on my door last week.
    Poor chap - I am pretty sure that he lost lots of motivation after our short chat :D

    Told him that their stand on the 'unlawful' handling of the refugee crisis is like me driving him in an emergency to the hospital and he complains later that I broke the law by speeding ;)

    I'm assuming Mrs Merkel will cruise to victory? And I'm sure that makes her the most successful woman politician of all time..... And why not?

    Surely Theresa May, will be seen as not only the
    Greatest British Politician. But in the World ! :D

    I think Angela Merkel will get in again as German chancellor. I see also that she's led her party since 2000! I couldn't see that ever happening in British politics myself.
