Old five pence piece bigger than a key

Oddly enough I found some old coins the other day. You forget just how small the modern coins are. 2d was bloody massive by comparison.

Now that's just taking the p*ss.

Honest, I refused so they towed it away. Weeks later I had a bill for storage, told them they like it that much they can keep it. Nothing ever came of it but I did go live in the wilds for quite some time after

To be fair, the Mk IV and V Cortinas were ugly. The MkIII was a lovely motor though.

2000 GXL was my favourite

My father had one but it rusted through. So did his Escort iirc. After that he stuck to Morris Travellers.

They're silly money. Built at a time when Vauxhalls rusted when the humidity went above 10%.

I bought a bright yellow Escort for the engine, drove it home ...

Opened the door to get out and open the garage and the car door fell off

that made me jump ...

Not as bad as some Bentley / Bugatti ash frame chassis' ... most were too well cared for but one or two were abandoned ...

Very. I have done a lot of miles in those. The vans are very useful too.
