Mum's Racing StripesAuthor: jawapro

Mum bought herself a new car as a graduation present! Well - a nearly-graduation present. She hasn't gotten her results yet - but it's pretty safe to say she'll have HDs in everything again (showoff).
The car is pretty impressive for a small car. It's a Ford Fiesta XR4 - with racing stripes! Mum was tossing up between this and a Focus - and ended up getting this one (cheaper). Still - apart from work cars, this is the most impressive car our family has ever owned.
I haven't even had a ride in it yet, let alone a chance to drive it - but Dad says it goes pretty well. It's a huge improvement over Mum's Sinata (which was hopeless to drive or ride in).
It might not be as cool as a Focus - but it's not too bad.
The car happened to be part of a special deal at the car yard, and came with a brand new large plasma TV! Dad's been talking about getting a new TV, so this seemed like a great idea.
Unfourtuantly, racing stripes are great on cars - but not on TVs.
We're not sure what's wrong with the TV - but it's got these two black lines running up the screen. Dad's going to take it back and get it fixed/swapped.
So that's the news.
