Bumper sticker love.....

I brake for wildflowers bumper sticker by Maria Schoettler

I don't (yet) drive, but in September I will resume my driving lessons!!!!

I am embarrassed to say I have been learning on and off for 20 years..... yes 20!!! I really am THAT bad and that nervous behind the wheel.

I have spent a lot of the last 20 years dreaming about my dream car (a red and white Citroen 2cv Dolly... a car I have wanted since I was about 5), the tartan throw that will be covering the back seat, the hours I will spend cruising to Low Rider by War..... it will be awesome..... and these are the two bumper stickers (along with my National Trust membership) I am going to decorate my baby with.... The 'I brake for wildflowers' sticker is from Maria Schoettler and is just the cutest, the below 2 Jimi Hendrix Bumper stickers are available on Ebay or Amazon

Hopefully this little dream will give me motivation, if not .... I will just have to get a greenhouse to pimp up :)

I haven't actually got a car yet, in fact I haven't had a lesson in over 10 years, but I am hopeful that one day soon my dream of a driving along in a classic beetle/ morris minor/ mini with Jimi Hendrix blaring out of my stereo will be a reality. 

I am not personally one for fluffy dice, but don't see a problem with a throw or two and maybe some pom pom brocade do you?

Who said a car was just to get from a to b? Pah!
