Those photos must be making JTL's car polishing hand twitch.

What's with the chocks behind the wheels? Dodgy handbrake or is it out of respect for your father's Spitfire flying heritage ?

Like it Giles.

The chocks are there a/ to prevent the Morgan Handbrake sticking syndrome & b/ The last time the handbrake failed (£500 inc MOT)bargain really not, she kissed the front of my very very good neighbours Merc with a minor scratching - Henry fractured his rear plastic Numberplate Reverse/Fog Lamp holder but carries on regardless. I'll get around to replacing it when it annoys me enough or affects performance. woohoo englandwave

Just taken son to school in the dark and snow - no complaints but surprisingly little crap/slush coming over the aero screens. I was as warm as toast - he was under the tonneau but at 14 he won't be able to hide for long.

Well Steve, everything changes I guess. I have fitted some extension tubes to the heater outlets which work very well indeed and can be tucked away when Spring comes.

Superb, my friend, even dirtier than Henrietta! Was due to clean her yesterday (lovely on the Mendips for once) but swmbo demanded cleaning rights for Iris (her VW camper) else no dinner. Thought I'd do Hen after but cold hands told me to try again on Friday. Which now looks like snow, so maybe not.

Cheers

Jeremy

PS - BLUE BOAR West Harptree : never been though been past many, many times. Perhaps when warm days return a 4/4 Sport get together? (Other Morgans welcome, of course)

Now that's SERIOUS motoring in a Mog, well done Shooter. And in an Aero too - really thought they were summer cars hide due to £££ cost.

Sorry to hear that MMC's famous stores dept havent been up to speed for you. I guess a round Britain tour in the Spring might get the mileo whirring again?

Cheers

The Aero has been off the road since mid February but I did enough miles from January 1st until then to win the 'Mileage' award :-)
