Mobbed

After test driving the Avensis this morning, the Gorse Fox was not really any closer to a decision. It was comfortable and well specified, but the diesel engine lacked refinement, and there was a background whine from either the transmission or the turbo charger. Practically it neither ruled itself out entirely nor popped to the top of the list.

This afternoon we headed for Chichester where we had a nice meal at a |Chinese restaurant and then went to the cinema to see “Knight & Day" with Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz. Thoroughly enjoyable (if somewhat implausible film) with plenty of action and humour – and the scenes in Seville were very familiar as we picked out location after location that we recognised.

We would have got away quicker but were (some would say understandably) mistaken from Tom & Cameron as we left and so had to spend time proving that we really weren’t, leaving disappointed autograph hunters and paparazzi at the door of the cinema as we headed for the car and the A27.
