Trouble is, it is usually a longer walk to the shop, but then again I get to admire, smirk, feel sick, elated, happy, sad or whatever, by watching the people, cars, animals etc, encountered on my way to the shop.

Makes for good exercise and entertainment, if you approach it in the right spirit.
And the gorgeous lines of a black S R is just tooo precious to let get spoiled by a careless shopper!
What does that mean? Never heard it before.

Don't ask how I know this, it wasn't me.. I was never there and you can't prove a thing! hahaha.
