Someone said Ford Streetkas are rusty,so maybe there are still some rusty cars about?

We were advised our Ka would fail it's next MOT, but the rust never showed above the paint. You could see it with close inspection (round the hatch lock and the petrol door, as I recall. So it was on the way to wreckers yard well before it would appear "rusty" to the casual observer.

Pipe smokers are as rare as rocking horse shoot - thankfully

There are plenty of phone boxes here. All red and usually next to a red post box.
We are in Valletta.

I love the smell of pipe smoke.

Yes so do i,and i am a non smoker.I often think about buying a pipe and just pointing it at someone in a sort of knowing manner.
