All Hat Jazz - Tony Barnard

All that Jazz

Advantages: Very very clever package
Disadvantages: almost none

”. Cute? What the bloody hell does that mean? I’ll tell you what it means. It means I can’t bloody win, that’s what “Cute” means. Even if I get everything else perfect, she can always get me by quoting the “Cute” amendment. “Yes dear, it may be all those things and it may be quicker than a very quick thing but it just isn’t cute”. Bugger. So, I looked at the little Polo Diesel and the Mini One. The only other car that caught my eye was, the Honda Jazz. The Polo does it on economy and build quality, the Mini One on “cute” and the Honda ‘cos I think it’s dead clever. Anyway I took my lovely lady to view all three one Sunday afternoon in May.

Review of Honda Jazz

Toni & Guy aren't all that

Advantages: Can be a bargain with a trainee
Disadvantages: Attitude!

From the net: " The greatest weavers work only by the light of the moon or when the sky is overcast. Constantly dipping their sharp pointed fingers in water, they split the fibres razor thin, and with all the virtuosity of a spinning wheel, plait ring after ring of palm into fabric so soft and dense that it equals silk.
