The weather brightened up today, so out came the old MG. I took it out for a drive, got some fuel and then a text came through from the missus: could I get this, that and the other whilst I was out. Parked up in our local supermarket, came out with my shopping to find a guy and his young son admiring the car. "What year is it?" Asks the little fellow," "1952," I replied. "Looks pre-war," said the Dad. "It was designed pre-war but hostilities meant that the factory went over to military manufacture," I explained.
"Did you buy it new?" The boy said. Don't you just love kids?
