I was following an early morris 1000 with a very "lived in" look through Saxilby near Lincoln on Friday 20th. Colour was brown but couldn't tell if it was paint, primer or rust but it certainly had character! :D

spotted Thursday on the Ringwood to Ferndown dual carriageway mid blue 1000 tourer with slightly darker blue hood. going the other way, so my glimpse probably wasn't the best.

a lovely green E reg 2 door pulled up in my texaco garage, bottesford today. it has a nice set of seats in it as well, looked like the original ones, but with head rests.
unfortunately the bloke didnt see Primrose sitting at the end of the forecourt grinning insistently, thus banter wasnt forthcoming.
had a dint in the drivers door as well. fixable mind you.

Ooooh! That's a couple of miles from where I live! What car do you have? I've seen a beautiful traveller in Newtown recently, and Alex saw a funky pickup. 8)

3.30pm today at the Little Chef, Willoughby Hedge Services, A303 Westbound, a smart green Van (D reg I think), resting with its bonnet open. I hope it was just cooling down and nothing untoward had happened. Only got a quick glance as I was travelling east, not in a Morris at the time.

I saw a maroon E- reg van on Welford Road in Northampton this morning, I've seen it parked outside a house not far from me a few times but this is the first time I've seen it on the move, I was walking at the time so looked a bit silly waving... :D

Dark blue saloon with alloy wheels near County Hall, Norwich this evening. I was in my Minor but further back in a traffic queue so no waves exchanged.
