Nice gentle 20 miler to Halwell and return - well summer has definitely arrived they were taking the 1st cut of sileage off the main runway at Halwell International ( http://southhamsflyingclub.co.uk/) as I passed. Those foragers (mini combine for you city boys) don't half fill the air full of crap compared to the hay cutters. The car just clocked over to 33,000 miles as I got home so I'll have a beer to celebrate.

Roof down (but sidescreens on) 150 miles from Kent to Dorset last night. Seriously thought the fuel gauge was stuck for the first half of the journey cruising on motorways, but it soon dropped once I got to the A roads. Saw a handsome dark blue Trad with luggage heading towards Dover on the M26. Anyone on here?

A 260 mile round trip to the factory for the MotorPunk Magazine launch. Sidescreens off and tonneau cover over the passenger side, I was glad of the new sheepskin jacket. Motorways there and scenic route back. Looking forward to receiving the first edition of the magazine, it sounds like it should be fun. Thanks to MotorPunk and Morgan for an enjoyable day.

Strange...thought I’d posted this yesterday! Trip in Nero to Barbon Hill Climb yesterday. Use to go there as a teenager so interesting to go back. Not in the same league as Shelsley or Prescott but then I’m too far away from them now. Nice clubby atmosphere and one sole Morgan, a Plus 8 from Kirkby Lonsdale who posted some decent times too 🤓  My nephews son enjoyed his first Hill climb AND the ride back in Nero!

Now that is a shame to hear you loved that car so much a short while ago  If you feel you have to move her on one good point will be that they no longer produce the 4 seater and the good one's will be in demand.

I've had her 5yrs, I've wanted one since I was 10yrs of age. But with a knackered right knee I had to give up kickstarting old bikes. The knee and back make it very difficult for me to use the morgan  63yrs and knackered  looks like I shall be seeking a more modern soft top
