Hi,
It's my grandads 80th birthday party on Sunday the 12th of January and I'm struggling what to get him. Ever since he sold his Morris minor he has spoken about his love for it, even searching on his new broadband to see if its still around. He's having a party at bilton grange village hall in hull and what I am wondering is if there's anyone in the area who could make an appearance and let him sit in it. He's fit and healthy and overall as enthusiastic about you all about Morris minors. Hope someone in the area can help obviously at a fee.
Please let me know if you can help
Thankyou
Hollie x

Just a thought, but Traveller Timbers are based in Hull. Maybe if you give them a ring they will let your granddad have a look round their workshop?

Hi, just wanted to update you all. Win came today with his Morris minor traveller!! My grandad was thrilled to bits with it all and really made his 80th birthday party. He took my uncle out to in it as he's been very stressed with a cancer scare but all is now well. I can't put into words how helpful and supportive you all have been in helping me make my grandads birthday so special.
And obviously a huge thankyou to win. I will think of you all when I see a Morris minor.
Thankyou again
Love Hollie xx
