The only time you will usually see Darrell or Nigel looking a little green round the gills is when they have indulged in a sugary comestible overload ….. however they have been VERY green (with envy) of late due to the arrival of a new car in the staff car park …..
It’s an iridescent purple mini that belongs to Adam, the new and very obliging and knowledgeable Computer Network Assistant ….. and Nigel and Darrell are completely besotted with it ….
All they do, when they see, it is sigh ….. and stroke it’s features …..
….. and continually try to lure and embroil Adam into partaking in in-depth conversations of a vehicular type nature …
….. in an effort to persuade him to let them sit in it for
just a little while, and sigh some more ….. what are they like?
“This is truly the car of my dreams” Darrell has declared on more than one occasion ……. “You can forget Porches, Lambrinis or Ferrero Rochers …. I aspire to a little purple mini… complete with purple fluffy dice!”
And Nigel? He has started to perusing car polish catalogues and has taken a very keen interest in chamois leathers!
I am not sure how Adam feels about having a pair of goggle eyed groupies, but I suspect that if there is ever a sponsored staff car wash event Darrell and Nigel would be sat beside Adam’s mini with their bucket and squeegee offering to sponsor themselves to wash it!!!

The fluffy dice make all the difference.

Looks like auto love is in full flower....the automobile magazines will be piling up! Perhaps they could offer to clean the windows weekly as a token of their auto love...Dianne
