That's new. Remembering to bring your drug-test kit to the party to check for spiked drinks. I don't think that's something either you or I ever gave any thought to when we were at University, or at a younger age for that matter. Perhaps something we might have seen in a Bond film. Is that cosmopolitan, louche, modern, a pragmatic adaptation to a modern world I'm unacquainted with, or something else entirely? Perhaps you're attending a future secret agent.

Are Range Rovers a thing in Hong Kong? They were a thing for a brief time in the 1980s with short people in Chelsea and Sloane Square, where they and their drivers become known as the "Sloane Rangers". In spite of being fairly enormous on the outside, Range Rovers paradoxically have the smallest interiors of any I've even been in - I literally can't even sit up straight in the front seat with the seat lowered as much as possible. If I slouch down enough to see out the windshield it's impossible to safely drive. They're like one of those tiny clown cars from the circus with a huge false exterior attached. Range Rovers have certainly never used much the mysteriously-missing-interior-space for an engine given their 15 second to 20 second 0 to 60 time. Land Rovers have more room but are even slower and they drive like a truck. Have these vehicles changed much since the Indian firm Tata bought them? Popular with young people because they're now the least inexpensive?

I will elbow my way past the shimmying, to say firstly that Erita is extremely fortunate to have parents that are wholly engaged in cultivating all of her potential. I swear some parenting styles actually crush creativity and talent in their children to exert total control and further their own agenda for them. This scenario cant end well. You may wish to point out that the least dented Range Rover is not a reliable indicator, since it could be fresh out of the body shop, obscuring the true character of ranger pilot. I expected that she might have immediately elected for a cab or public transport. No pretense there.

"I do not know, what do you think is the answer? and I would try to get references from others, and bring along my drug-test kit for drinks", said daughter. HAH!... I had similar conversation with daughter at that age too boot before allowing her to attend a concert in DT Toronto with a friend... Her answers were not as expected but equally savvy.. so she got to go LOL Yes constant rapport is good for the child and your peace of mind :))
