Rumour Mill



Heads Or Tails


When I saw todays title Rumour - this first thing that came to mind was an old gospel song sang by a quartet but I cannot remember the rest of the song or who sang it,

So instead I decided to do a search for any other song that would have the words rumour mill.
But before we get to that I thought a deinition would be interesting:

You can refer to the people in a particular place or profession who spread rumours as the rumour mill.

or

process of spreading rumors: the process by which rumors are started and spread

Pink Window



Taken a few years back in a Play House at a Garden Center outside of Somerset West, South Africa.
These were taken by Claudelle Bender. We were investigating what a play area would need and she was also practicing her photography.

Choosing a car



As you know last week I was in an accident and now we are in the market for a car.

Arghhh and its driving me up the wall. What is the right choice? What is the best choice?

We have a specific price range and because we are only int eh country for 18 months we don't have access to financing. However we were surprised today when one car dealership has offered us financing.

Who ever thought we will be choosing between buying a new car and a second hand car and be leaning towards the 2nd one. All the comparisons we are making are not bringing us any closer to a decision. So now i feel I should trust my emotions - LOL.

What do you think?

New Kia Rio 1 1.4 (Black is our only choice if want one fast) or Toyota Aygo 2007 with 6500 miles on it?
