Yesterday my father-in-law made a stealth purchase. He didn’t tell Nicewife or I about his plan. He didn’t tell his wife either. He just casually rocked up at about 3 o’clock in the afternoon with a Porsche, parked it, and went inside without any comment.
Thanks to the fact that older cars rapidly depreciate in Japan he bought this 1992 Carrera, with only 66,000km on the clock, for a fraction of what it would have cost in Australia. At least now the question of whether or not he’s in the midst of a mid-life-crisis is well and truly settled.

Greetings from France.
A boy can’t have too many toys.
Love to Nice-Wife and Boys
Bev and Bruce
Thanks Bruce. You’re in France? Have a great time!
I can just picture your father-in-law. Pass on my greetings to him.
And the old black BMW? You could bring it back home…
I wish… 😉
He who dies with the most toys wins
Paul, you understand that in order to beat nicewife’s dad you’ll now also have to buy a Porsche. You are going to buy a Porsche, aren’t you?
