There's one other thing... why did you obtain a vehicle the exact-same colour as
Boy In A Dress' shed...? That's 'Sherwood Green' isn't it?!
Oh boy, now it means I'll have to convince my wife to by a VW just to keep with
the trend!!
(I like that car, G!)
I mean look at those wheels. Those wheels speak of long roads and old-school manners.
They hint of a time when a nod from a man was worth the same as a signature on a
legal document.
A car like that can sit in the rain in the same way a loyal dog watches from it's kennel
as it's family sleeps. If Herbie had a poor-cousin with a heart of gold, this car is it.
Oh, I'll cede that rust will find a way to bring it to it's knees and the clunky nature of yore
will sometimes make you wish for a more-modern vehicle, but that-there Morris-Minor is
classic... a car that does it's job and to hell with it's plastic, robot-made descendants.
I'm getting old.
