Weekend Parking

Honestly, this posting is nothing more than an excuse for putting up the photo at the end. But I thought I should write something rather than just post the photo. So I have come up with this quiz to see if there is a correlation between the colour of your car and that of your House in STAR. While the structure and content of the quiz are obviously arbitrary, it will be interesting to see if it actually makes any sense at all.

(In case you have forgotten, or somehow do not know, the Houses in STAR are: Green, Blue, Black, Red, White, and Yellow.)

If the colour of your car is that of your House in STAR:
- You are a sloppy, sloppy bloke and still have some intense deep attachment with the memories of your House.
- You consider yourself a House-Man first and a STAR-Man second.
- There may not be many of these Old Boy types around except perhaps a few who used to be House Captains.

If the colour of your car is that of another House in STAR:
- You have issues with your House or people from your House, but not with STAR in general.
- You are really envious of people in that other House, with all their achievement, camaraderie and sense of fun. And you spent way too much time away from your own House.
- Again, there may not be too many who deliberately chose the colour of another House for their cars. But if your car is Yellow although you weren’t in Yellow House, your display of envy is quite understandable.

If colour of your car is not that of a House in STAR:
- You couldn’t convince your wife to get the colour that you wanted.
- Your car didn’t come in the colour of a House and to get it re-painted would have been a real hassle.
- There may be a lot of us in this category. Our cars may not be of the same colour of our own House or any other Houses in STAR but hopefully we will still be there for the OBW2006.

Finally, if your car has all 6 House colours: you are a freak and in serious need to get a life, but you and your car should be featured in School Ties magazine. And if you have six cars, each in a different House colour: you are an uber-rich ex-Head Boy, so you should cough up some massive sponsorships for the OBW2006.

Now, do we need to look at car parking arrangement for that weekend?
