Morris Minor Owners Club

No bother with a pre war Austin Seven or my Panda. I remember some years ago going on an Austin Seven club holiday to the Cotswolds about 10 cars took place. We went to a council car park in Cirencester which only had a few spaces left but we managed to get two Austin Sevens in one bay inside the de...

Ah you have that trouble as well.

Lets hope I have better luck with the custard this time as the last time I made it it was very lumpy but I retrieved the situation by straining it through one of my socks a clean one I might add I'm very mindful of hygiene.

I slackened off the hand brake cables by undoing ...
