Morris 8

After yesterday's party (see my back blip} we stayed on for an extra day. We spent a quiet morning in our friends' garden reading the Sunday papers in the sunshine. After lunch we went to a Classic Car Rally. It was a happy village affair as well as having a substantial collection of vintage cars and tractors ranging from huge glossy Bentleys to tiny ancient two seaters. For us the star of the show was this 1937 Morris 8. When I first knew Normous he had a red two seater 1937 Morris 8 which was his pride and joy. It was great fun, and quite nerve wracking when it went over 45 mph! He sold it when we got engaged, to save money, and to this day he declares (in jest I hope!) that that was the biggest mistake he has ever made!
