My car is in the garage today for a service so told dd this morning she would have to walk home, not a problem she does this most days anyway. Sat earlier and I see my neighbour driving into our street and dd is in the car so I go to the door to check everything is ok and this is the conversation that followed
Me- "hi, everything ok"
Neighbour- "yes fine, dd just wanted a lift home in a BMW today "
Me- "sorry?"
Neighbour- "yes, since you were not there at pick up dd thought it would be nice to get a lift in a BMW"
Me- "dd, did you want a lift in a BMW?"
Dd- "what's a BMW"
Neighbour- "aahhhh come on now dd, it must have been nice sitting in a BMW?"
Dd- (looking totally confused) "yes, thanks for the lift home"
Me- "thanks for that"
Then she smiled and walked off.
Was lovely that she offered dd a lift as it was starting to spit rain but was this really such a treat.
To put it into context a bit my car is average but only six month old, the BMW in question is very old (nothing wrong with that my last car was old) but I feel I'm missing something by neighbours attitude.

AIBU?
To think my neighbour is a snob, and a very strange one at that?
