What better birthday present....

Post by Peetee »

..Could a bloke ask for?

Yes it's a cake!
Now this was a few weeks ago and the creator (a neighbour) knew nothing about Minors before she started. At the time Albert wasn't finished and even though she made repeated trips across the road to "colour match clarendon grey" she still had to refer to the internet to glean that Minors had bonnet strips, badges etc etc.
To say I was taken aback when I first saw it is an understatement. Truth is I nearly burst into tears. :oops:

That's brilliant, isn't it? She's certainly made a great job of getting the shape right.

You must have some lovely neighbours! :D

Happy (belated) birthday. :):
Happy Minoring!

Excellent cake! You must have been really nice to your neighbours - or are they about to buy a Moggie and be in need of your help?

I'd probably eat the roof section first, thus giving the illusion of having the top down.
:D
