Mercedes Flop




So the celebrated Mercedes CLS failed to materialize at the Hertz rental depot. While I was considering a characteristically Wyn-like shade of apoplectic, the service agent found us a nice Audi A6 Wagon which suits us quite nicely although we spent about an hour waiting for it to be sorted. But he tossed in a free tank of fuel and only charged us for a 2-door compact. Now, if only the sandwiches from the M4 Services could be had for less than 126 pounds per slice of bread, we would be having a real bargain day.
Unfortunately the SavNav system is less polite and accommodating that in Wyn's A4. Owen renamed her the SatNag or the Nagivation System. "Dont drive so fast!", "Do you know where you are going?", "Why dont you stop for directions?"
Today was quite rainy. Heading to Cardiff tomorrow.
Thats all for tonight.
Good night all.
