How not to purchase milk

[RobThomas]

Went to the shop to buy a carton of milk, stopped at the Industrial Estate on the way there, accidentally bought two Minors, got home....forgot the milk.

I'm not popular with the wife today.

You got your priorities right then.

I'd rather have a cup of tea than go through that hassle again! ------- remember laying on your back with all that rust falling off? Spending hard earned cash on crap parts? Fettling every bit to get a decent fit? Working through the night, annoying the neighbours? --------- not that I want to put you off of course!

One needs crushing and the other one is in good nick.

AAX773A and EAX316B. I think the second one was a re-import because it is a clap-hands car with old style pull start (MA2s5D 1030092 on the logbook!) and is dated as being first registered in March 64.

Any photos Rob?

AAX is hopefully now pressed into a nice 12" square cube at the scrapyard. The other one is off for an MOT tomorrow so I'll get it home after that. The duotone interior has a couple of splits where the white bits have torn away at the seams. I rescued the identical seat covers from the other car to get enough bits to patch the seats up.

This is the exect reason i keep long life milk in the kitchen hidden away, i don't like the taste of it but its better than having non at all, and you can argue over the cars during a medium quality cuppa.
