Ford Escort LOC138P I learned to drive in that.

Morning, woken at silly O'clock by a Macaque tap dancing on our balcony. Almost getting up time now.

That's a MK2 Cortina about 1970ish I think.

Well the car could be but I think the photo is 1976 (apart from anything ... One of those pictured wasn't born till '71)

Until you have to weld up all the holes.....

Chevette, then?

My first brand new car was an Escort, I still remember the number plate HPL490V . I really thought I was the puppies privates with that, the first one in my group of friends that had a new car. What a plank.

Like all Fords.

I have a riding lawn mower. My fix it guy had one for sale on CL, and it gets delivered tomorrow after mass. A few years old, but I have that trace of Northern blood that says I shouldn't buy anything that could be mistaken for new. It does have a cup holder, and will fit through my gate. The Ariens will keep my lawn from looking like a cash crop. It has been 10 years since I have owned a gasoline mower.

Turn up the volume of something that you like?

Alas no. Fortunately the carbonated beverage wore off and I fell asleep with Gardeners' World in the background.

I was woken at 6am by a manky pigeon cooing outside my bedroom window. Grrrrrrrr

Ditto, but it was a hungry Labrador in my bedroom.

A small paw tapping on my face followed by several demanding squeaks woke me up.

Are you going to paint a face on it and is there room for the dogs to ride on it?

Morning, I seem to have brought the grey skies North with me!

 

[summerdays]

Grey skies here too ... And we are having a family get together today, BBQ planned!

Fog, heater on in the car, digging out long bib gear for morning commute.

I dont like this global warming. Summer should not be like this.
