Self Indulgence - Driving through Tree Avenue, Kingston Lacy, Dorset

Although I don't miss commuting to work everyday, I did use to enjoy the most amazing short journey to work.

The ever changing scenery of the tree lined road running alongside Badbury Rings, near Kingston Lacy never  fails to impress.

Self Indulgence - I like driving in my car.

What do I do when I want to treat myself?  Go for a drive.

Living in the country and a small market town, I don't experience traffic jams any more.  I don't endure the daily commute to work, because I work from home, so if I can find an excuse to get out for a spin, I make the most of it.  And why is it such a treat?  I just love my car.

So fingers crossed (for everyone's benefit and not just mine!) that the sun will come out soon (and stay out) so I put away the hard top for a few months and enjoy the car at its best.
