It’s been three years that a long legged, pale blue eyed and blonde haired girl walked into our office. But don’t think we lost our bearings that day. Irene came, saw and took everything under her control as if she’d never done anything else. Including ourselves! If you ever phoned us, you will probably have spoken to her. If you ever e-mailed us, she was probably the one who replied to you within minutes. If you ever tried to place a fake ad on our sites, it was probably Irene who unmasked you as a vicious scammer. Boy, was this girl efficient.
The perfect PreWarCar/PostWarClassic right-hand girl? It seemed pretty much like it. One thing was – and is - hard to explain to her, though, and that is that perfectly shiny and glittery polished cars aren’t worth more than some sad-looking heaps of corrosion as such. Irene can be sincerely indignant about that. And we remember the day the press release with the prices fetched at the Baillon-collection came in - leaving her puzzled for at least a week. But we will actually miss that, too, now that her time has come for a new career move.
Irene, you are our very special Friday Lady on your last day with us. All the best to you!
