To some, having a cup holder in your car is standard. You think nothing of it. It’s there; you use it. 

For me, it is not standard. It is a first. My new (used) rather small, girly car has a cup holder!

Gone are the days of balancing Costa coffee cups on the dash. Gone are the days of sitting them in the footwell and driving very slowly round corners and avoiding potholes. Gone are the days of swearing when they slop all over the floor. Gone are the days of the stained cars mats and their distinct stale coffee odour. 

I am happy.

Small things and all that….
