North East Scotland is the location, statisticaly, the driest place in the U.K.Not quite as scenic as the North west of Scotland, but like everywhere in Britain, there are lots of amazing places within easy reach of your back door.
Fewer folk and more roads = ideal Morgan territory, Didn't know this is the driest place in uk , thought it was Southend on sea. ! Having done a 2 secs of research on the internet, you might be right, I've been lied to all these years....then again, it must rain once in a while in Southend on sea, on that day NE Scotland might be dryer.

ewn Sorry to see you have had an attack of the white stuff, down here, which is actually the driest part of the country, we had 13c on Xmas day which meant a brilliant drive in the Moggie to Sandringham to see the Royal Family then, although a lot colder at 6c, a really sunny day today at the coast to see the steam trains on the N.Norfolk line.  Yes, busted, let's settle for the dryishist place then. Hopefully the warm spell you're having will help our Queen get over her cold, was she up and about when you visited?

I haven't been paying attention! What lovely clocks and steering wheel. Must have another look at the 80ths. Great pic. Keep them coming.

Thanks again friends for all the compliments. It's not unique to the 80th, all morgans exhibit the same phenomenon, unless you really look at them you don't appreciate what you're seeing. The shapes, the details and the materials are cobbled together to create masterpieces, the only thing I miss out on, is seeing one drive past, if there are any others here, I've yet to bump into them.
The sterling wheel is beautiful, it's thin rimmed though, so delicate driving feels sweetest, the "Colin McRae" wheel twirling stuff is what rhe caterham is for.
