Ps. Oldies describes anyone over 35 or in special circumstances 30 is you wear corduroy trousers and big knit jumpers

 

 

How very dare you!

 

I'm currently rockin' a winceyette nightdress and some dribble on my chin.

 

I wouldn't be seen dead in cords.

I had to google Damart.

 

I think I've found my new spiritual home.

 

The thermals section is my favourite.

The mini is a young man's car.  I know this because I did the wheel arches with under-seal today and it's aged me more than the car.

Owned my first 1965 Mini at 17........and still own one today at 55, always had at least one Mini continuously throughout that time, sometimes as a second car when a larger family car was required.

I just love Minis. I bought one because I wanted to own a Mini, with insurance being a bonus. I think it's good that we're getting into Minis at this age (I'm 18) and that we want to get into cars and to learn more about way they run as modern vehicles just hide everything. Insurance made me feel more inclined to purchase one, but not the primary reason. I bought it because i love it.
