Bumper Harvest..

.. of puns and bumpers.

Exhibit 1: New dented bumper

Exhibit 2: Old dented bumper

And a closer look at exhibit 2:


Age of car: 2 weeks, location: parked. This is getting to be worse than the ol un
Can nobody in this city drive?

It's been a while since I blogged, so bear with the hasty regurgitation of bad puns:

An Indian soup in Athens?
Shorba the greek


Wine-making in Nasik, by someone who lived in New England?
Maratha's Vineyard

A tedious Afrikaaner who can't drive?
A crashing Boer

Update:
The Bollywood queen of haute couture?
Jaya Prada of course!
(from a contributor)

And to make the bumper situation clear: The car was bought. Parked. Hit. Bumper fixed. Parked. Hit.
Has someone placed pan masala and supari on the poor dear?

kenny: we have moved (again!) and now we have a safe gated community type spot. but it really was ridiculous.

I don't think we could afford the rent on your flat. and if we move again, I will just descend into a well in the manner of a murakami character.

how has your move been?

move has been a nightmare. i am stil struggling a month later to set everything up. i dont now how on earth you managed to move so many times. :(

the key to a happy move is to shift from a smaller apartment that is under termite attack, to a larger one that has safe car parking and gets a pleasant lake breeze.
