Interesting package from Austria...

Today, we received an interesting package wrapped in “Inspected by US Customs and Border Protection.” We’ve never received a package like this before, but seeing that it comes from Austria and the box was the color of Taxi Cab Yellow, it could have only come from one person, Bachido member BH!

Many many thanks for your thoughtful gifts, BH! It is the highlight of the week and will be enjoyed by all! :slight_smile:

And yes, after the camera turned off, I finally realized that it was Mozart, not James Madison. :wink: What can I say. powdered wigs make everyone look the same.

yeah I guess as for powdered wigs and who knows about the accuracy of that portrait anyway although those at least are original mozart’s balls . . . :slight_smile: . . . as produced in salzburg and not some of those cheaper clones featuring even more questionable designs that are also available in stores around here . . . :slight_smile:

anyway after replying by message I just want to repeat in short that I am very happy about that my little gift was received the way it was meant as a good willed greeting and thank you for the taxi song and the overall efforts with regard to bachido which I do enjoy a lot :slight_smile:

as for taxi driving great the snowfall has picked up and is heavy right now so it was a good decision this morning to take the day off :slight_smile:

(cabs all slippy on snow for whatever reason)

although yesterday I was driving and couldn’t have been happier about having Kyoko’s lucky charm for safe and comfortable driving with me as I even ventured onto a path where snow chains (see sign) are mandatory and did so without snow chains . . .

(don’t worry Kyoko I took a day off today so I do heed your advice to not count on the lucky charm alone and would have sent that passenger yesterday on his way on foot would the street that got steeper further above not have been very well covered with a cool special kind of grip gravel stones I have actually never seen before and lots of that so I drove on and everything turned out to be okay)

(as for that slight front bumper damage visible on the picture that happened earlier and wasn’t me . . . :slight_smile:

BH: It is a beautiful landscape!!! Snow makes all the houses, forests and your bumped taxi all the more beautiful.
It is a good shot!
I like the winding path especially.

Btw, do I find you in the Austrian taxi co. calendar? I see some men who look drivers.

Kyle: your choice of BGM is nice!! Exciting!

OMG i LOVE Mozart Ballen!!!
You just can’t get them in the UK, they all yukky fakes XD
You guys and your coffee, you make me laugh!

coffee AND mozart ballen . . . unfortunately there is no picture of me on the calendar but to meet the popular (or at least Kyle’s) demand there are some pictures and clips . . .

Epic beard. Perfect for the avatar.

Awesome pics B H!

At long last!! Ooh, excellent pics. This is a fun picture/story post. :slight_smile: Would almost make a good children’s book! “BH & His Car”
Perhaps “BH - His Car & Clientele” would be saved for the adult version. :wink:

Hahahaha!!! “Fierce competition”. ;-D

And yeah, what Karl says. Rock the face whiskers for your profile pic. You and Pat Deaton should meet sometime.

At last that makes me think of that cool song but enough of me now . . . also this sharing of pictures has kept me from practicing :slight_smile:

(good ideas though Kyle & Karl and thanks everyone)
