They don't make nostalgia like they used to !

Getting away from a Morris 1000 with a 4 ft x 2 ft 'plod' sign on the roof was great fun.
We often slunk into Zummerzet as the pubs opened 'til 11.00 on Fri & Sat whilst Brizzle ones shut at 10.30.
Ran the gauntlet on the way back, but the zider usually won.

Thanks for asking, I've updated the 'Happy Bunny' thread.

Is making weird engine noise. goes well but a bit suspect at low revs. Could have been 'chipped'. Will get it to a diagnostic venue soon.
