  1. What gave you that idea? 🤣
  2. That Sabre is odd isn’t it. MK3 end? I enjoy a yank truck, looks like a Mack, Kenworth or Peterbilt. Can’t make it out.
  3. First show of the year. Even the rain held off which is very unusual for the frozen north. An eclectic bunch of motors for your perusal. The BMW was absolutely stunning. Car of the show. The pictures don’t do it justice.
  4. Your very own death cult has been raided I see!
  5. 35 years of Escort bits. Retirement fund looms.
  6. Thanks Mark. Some W ⚓️’s about these days.
  7. Renewed again this year. 👍🏻
  8. Get it bought then. 😉

  10. Agreed. As with any old car there are horror stories. Mines from SA so christ knows what’s in there😳😂 I’m sure Graham U found a mummified mouse in his head lining 🤣

  14. I suppose the million dollar question is, where do you start? This post could tun into a TV drama where a long lost partner was found in a barn covered in dust and off they went into the sunset, I mean garage. Should be decent viewing this 🤣
  15. I’ve called my car, WHAT NOW! It’s all I seem to say these days.
  16. Still around and SORN’d. 👌
  17. Fantastic van. You’ve kept the original writing. I remember the thread on this. Great to see it on the road. 👌
  18. I’m alive and well. Now looking for piles of wood….🤣 Getting on a bit now but not ready for my pine overcoat yet.

    Rain

    My mate Ricky lived on Brayside Road, as did my mates dad Bernard. He had a bike and side car, like Olive from On the Buses. 🤣 Small world indeed.

    First job

    My first job was a trainee typesetter for the Daily Mirror, Thomson House which is now The Printworks. My late Father worked there in the circulation department. Great days, on the piss every lunch with the alcoholic editors and pressmen. The then Editor Victor Mayhew lived in flats on top the Manchester Arndale Centre, Cranford Court, a whole housing estate with gardens on the roof of a shopping centre, 🤣. His parties were legendary. It was an eye opener for a young 16 year old from the streets of Moss Side in Manchester. The Robert Maxwell pension scandal ruined it and I was finished before I was 18. I then joined the military.
