Vauxhall Zafira Driver Displaying ‘One Life Live It’ Sticker Asked To Explain Himself


 

A Rotherham man has been asked to explain himself after a ‘One Life Live It’ sticker was spotted in the back of a beige 2002 Vauxhall Zafira parked outside Home Bargains last Saturday afternoon.

The sticker, often seen as a clarion call to live life to the max and follow a full-on, care free lifestyle, jarred with several passers-by who felt it to be at odds with the achingly dull car and depressing location.

Enquiries by the Bugle revealed that the car is owned by Andy Ball, a 32 year old mobile phone salesman from Ingshead Avenue, who has two young children, a 30 year mortgage, and a 25% share in a four berth caravan at Ingoldmells.

When we confronted Andy with the criticisms, he was unapologetic, “I see the sticker as an embodiment of an underlying philosophy rather than a statement of my current reality,” he said. “A laissez faire, devil may care approach to life is a noble aspiration, but tends to go tits up when you’re skint, run out of bog roll, and your 5 year olds got the shits.”

Andy asked us to point out that he also owns a 125cc motorcycle, and has a family holiday in Magaluf booked and paid for.
