leave the house and go down the alley, away from the church and towards the police station, the night has just turned grey for the day. Today, turn right at the end of the church lane, that is where the parking spaces that are reserved for residents are.
The small black car had to go to the car repair place, to see if there was any hope at all of it's passing the road safety tests.
That is the reason for turning right, and that is the reason for using the family car today. The family car is a small five door four seater Opel General motors machine. And it is hardly ever used now. since the time that the son has grown and the wife has started to use a bicycle to go for the shopping. The battery has lost some charge, the starter motor is slow.
Spend time getting used to manual transmission again, and leave the town driving less steadily than usual, there is no cruise control and the radio is still.
Slow down to find out how to adjust the radio.
The radio has a better sound in this car than in the small black one.
But it is a small consolation later on, upon hearing the news on the telephone that the little car will never pass the test.
So that is the end of that little era.
