Such an awesome person.  Just as I have adopted my cousin as my mum, unbeknown to granddad I have adopted him as my dad :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyways he came up and brought me this beauty.  My old car had seen better days :)&lt;br /&gt;I kept this quiet as I wanted to surprise my younger sister when I go visit her again.  I went up to see her last holidays (about 3 months ago) after I hadnt seen her in years.  However Im not good at keeping secrets from her.
