Sad day had to sell Betty

Post by rodders1marsbar »

Hi folks, Sad day today, I have had to sell my beloved Betty, My mobility has declined and can no longer go any distance in her due to leg problems, So the hard decission was made and I have passed her onto a new keeper a friend who has yerned for a few years from one, So Now Lynn and Paul are the new keepers of betty, I know you will all welcome them both, I will not be leaving the club so hope to still see you all around
Thanks to all Rod x

That was my thoughts or she would have started to rot in the garage, But still sad.

So sad to hear that poor health stops you from ownership :( Good luck.

I know how you feel - sold Gromit last April (not for the same reasons).
Best wishes for the future - you've probably got lots of good souvenirs.
