Talk Morgan Forums Morgan Sports Cars Classic Morgans (pre-CX) So, have you driven your Morgan today?

Well it may be that my recollections of the (19)50's/60's are fading or taking on a rose-tinted hue with the passage of time (and I'm not talking about the delights of Morgan ownership). There is a lot of info online, e.g. https://www.bbc.co.uk/hampshire/content/articles/2007/01/23/gorse_burning_feature.shtml However it doesn't alter my distaste for the process or the environmental impact of the smoke, which to my eyes make a bit of a nonsense of e.g. legislating against old cars on the grounds of pollution. A question of scale perhaps. Anyhow a different stance is taken by our neighbours to the West, in Dorset, https://www.bournemouthecho.co.uk/n...ws-extent-of-damage-to-burned-heathland/ I worked for a decade in that geographical area, and the impact on reptiles and invertebrates was immense and tragic. I'm not an eco-warrior mind you, just trying to take a balanced view.
