Memory.

[Chas]

Having recently bought a convertible and today being so sunny we went for a drive through the Surrey countryside with the hood down.
Nearly 60yrs ago I used to go camping at a site in East Horsley, the entrance to which was just like a pathway to one of the houses along the road where it was situated, the site can't be seen at all from the road and I was amazed that I could remember it 59yrs later.

And I remember you had an aching tooth for one of these.

Yes, that's right it was Boris the Morris, but it was way up in Aberdeen and it was a manual which meant I would have to get it converted to auto.
