Memorable Barb



Sarah needed a car in Deep River.  Barb and Sarah went out one weekend and found a 2003 Honda Civic with low mileage and no rust.  It was private sale from an Indian lady named Panda.  Panda was selling the car after only owning it for a few months because her husband had found a job in United States.

Sarah bought the car but wouldn’t get it until Panda was moving.  Barb had to sign the paperwork as if she was buying the car to get the license and the insurance.

Just before Sarah was coming to Ottawa to pick up the car, Barb went out to get the license.  The lady at the Service Ontario remembered Barb from many years ago when Barb bought her Honda Civic.  Barb must be very memorable.

Barb bought license plates for Sarah.  The ladies behind the counter competed to see which one of them could pick the most memorable license plates.  One lady found one with BTXW 499 on it.  Barb thought she would remember 499 because that was a common sale price for the things she buys.  She could remember BT because it stands for Barb Taylor.  But what would XW stand for.  One lady said Ex Winner.  Barb took offense from that saying she was still a winner.  Then the other lady said Extra Witty.  Barb agreed she was extra witty and took the license plates.
