Meanwhile welcome to this forum Rob.
If you fancy a nice day out come down to the Hive Beach cafe in Burton Bradstock for lunch. We have some great roads in this area, including one of the most picturesque coastal runs in the country, and, very few potholes!
Happy Days!

could be popping in next week, but unlikely in the Morgan, maybe the Jag instead.

Many thanks one and all, home and abroad, for your warm welcome to Talk Morgan.
The thread re roads around Blewbury resonated as we used the A417 en route to Prescott last Sunday. I thought that Blewbury was bad - until we got to Wantage. I thought that Wantage was worse - until we got to Faringdon where the holes on the way in were perfectly matched by the speed bumps on the way out!
Looking forward to trying the recommended Dorset roads now.

You will be very welcome. Just make sure you avoid August when the roads are much busier due to holiday makers; much better from September onwards.
Happy to meet up for coffee if you do come down. TM me if coming.
