Well, I didn't read this thread yesterday so it's taken all evening to catch up... new Supersport ? paff ! I almost bought a real Supersport on Wednesday ! Yes really ! A lovely 1934 Matchless beetleback, except some sod outbid me, wonder if it was a 'bloke from the Dales'?
My 80 year old dad been staying a few days, fit and well he is, and zero tolerance. His motto is zero f**ks given. I look at him, and he is becoming more eccentric every year. Anyway Morgan’s, he drove me in my Plus 6 today for a brew in Malvern factory, he drove like a complete loon, overtaking every chance he got, 80, 90 on A roads. Pulled into Morgan, called the new Supersport a tarted up Morgan, complained about sour bread toast at Cafe, and was chatting up the two ladies on Morgan reception. He then wheel spins out of factory, with me telling him off. His reply was, I’m trying to give Morgan drivers a bad name, whilst grinning into his white beard. He said my Plus 6 was crap , and reminds him of old crap he used to drive in the 60s. I give him this thread to read, and he said it’s very clique ish, and a lot of nonsense being talked which he has little time for. His synopses was, as a retired defence lawyer from Liverpool, is that people should do and say what they want, when they want, buy what you want , and if your going to publish your thoughts, then you are inviting criticism, comments you won’t like, and inviting an over emotional response from a gang of people you will probably never meet and probably wouldn’t even like if you met them face to face. In his jaded opinion, everyone is full off sh*t, and so is your car, as he jumped in his SL and drives to the pub at British camp,where he has made more friends in 3 days than I have living down here for 30 years!
What’s the point of me posting this drivel. I don’t know. Probably released the frustration of dad. But like my Morgan, my dad brings out the best and worst in me, gives me pleasure, good fun, and is a massive pain in the arse sometimes.🤷♂️
