Come on Alf, ask the lady out. Kath has a classic car that's she loves. Me, I had one carefull owner for 39 years, She ran it well, But the car would sometimes play up so she left it in the garage and found a new car. Being in the garage is good fun, The car can do as it pleases, Comes and goes when it wants, Holidays, Pubs, Football you name it and it will just go at a minutes notice. There were 5 prospective new owners who had a sale or return policy, The 1st one she was a screamer when driving, I couldn't be doing with all that noise, 2nd was a drink driver, Always drinking even when cooking she'd have a glass of Sambuka in her hand, And spare bottles in the cupboard, 3rd always wanted to take the car out, The car rarely got a chance to re charge it's batteries, As it was getting older it needed to rest, 4th was a Lady who was always buying new parts when they weren't wanted, The car doesn't like to be fussed over, Just likes to go at the same pace. 5, She was great, Unfortunately it was during Covid, She never got to take the car out only saw pictures from the internet, She called it off as she was experiencing discomfort in her back and wouldn't be able to sit in the car, She has a beautifull Welsh accent, Her own home in Bolsover, Then out of the blue last October she sent me an invite to her home for Tea and a chat, I went and she really enjoyed the car, Told me that her back has had an opperation and she thinks with time she'll be able to get in the car, We saw each other several times, But then...There's only really one thing I fear...heights, Flying in planes I hate, Tall buildings also, But there was a fear that was stronger than that...Love, I was heading that way, There was no bedroom activity, We just got on so well, But it's that space in the back of your mind that isn't too sure, I couldn't give 100% to the relationship, So called it off. This car will now become over the years a classic barn find, Dusty, Still with all things working maybe except for the Gear Stick, That maybe just maybe as time goes on, She'll open those heavy barn doors and find a beauty...who knows ?♂️ i-Ram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
