wymberley Posted June 16, 2023 Report Share Posted June 16, 2023 (edited) As I'd pulled over ready leave the motorway I was quite happy to sit at 40 mph behind an MG Magnette which was towing a trailer mounted small sailing dinghy and both of which looked to be a similar vintage of the car. The junction came up and I sneaked past. The old boy's face was such that he wasn't on the way home but somewhere off, say, St Michael's Mount on a sunny day with a stiff breeze. Magic.

They muck you up, your Mum and Dad, They don't mean to, but they do. They give you all the faults they had and some extra, just for you.
