'Objects In Space'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
"Why don't you and GF rent a car, and we'll do our thing, and meet up in the evenings?"
I think this is your best bet -- for extra bonus good-cop points, spin it as a matter of their convenience. "I know you're only going to be there for a few days, and you'll have a lot to try to see, so I'd hate for you to be tied up waiting on our schedule..."
... and the baby's schedule
Thing is, this friend is really pushing for renting a car while there. Because he's lived there, and will be bringing his girlfriend, he will want to be the driver. He is the worst driver I know. I am scared to ride with him when it's not even the autobahn in winter. And with Mallory..
I'd also go with the roominess issue. Point out that it is difficult to ride with two adults and a baby sit in the back of a full size, and you know that european cars tend to be smaller. If all that fails, just bat your eyes and say "I know it's silly, but I just don't feel comfortable with ANYone driving Mallory"
The funny thing is, I originally typed sabre, but not knowing which he used, fell back on foil, which was my brother's choice.
And in his underground lair, Neil Diamond is twirling his moustache and exclaiming "Curses! Foiled again!"
I'm trying really hard to remember any possible offenses from Juliana, and am failing miserably.

Yeah, Susan, on the great start with daycare!
Happy Surgery Day, Jilli! Whyfor the birthday happy-fun plans?
even when Bibendum the Michelin Man has personally guaranteed his safety.
Hee hee hee. Thanks to William Gibson I know have the Michelin Man's real name stuck in my head forever.

Yup. Also, I will always be just a wee bit creeped out by him, too.
We are back from the pediatrician. They looked at Ellie and saw nothing wrong. I think they had no idea what was causing the problem, but they weren't worried. I feel better that she was looked at.
So glad Annabel's first daycare day was a good one. Sounds like a smooth transition for her.
{{juliana}} just because and you are never a pain!
I am now earwormed with "Don't mess with the Michelin Man."
