Typical Tesco slackness really, Terry. Last time I shopped in a Tesco there was a horse roaming about in the clothing department.

Don't suppose you recall the colour, reg number, whether it was saloon, estate or van and/or any other details about the wee Reliant please?

I remember it as multi-tone red. I have seen it before so I will keep an eye out for the reg number if you like

Yes please. It's not for me you understand, it's for someone whose mission in life is to keep records about any remaining examples of the small, four wheeled Reliants. At this moment some 400 kittens from a total of almost 4000 built are accounted for.

seen this last week whilst on holiday in lymington.
quite struck by it to be honest!

What a stunning example and a brilliant advert for the business that's named on the van. I'd employ that guy as he clearly has great taste and so would be unlikely to bollocks the job up, or so I would like to believe.

Pretty sure there is one of those quite near me. Will have to go and find it tomorrow.

I was just closing up for lunch, when four MMM (http://www.triple-mregister.org/) MGs stopped, looking for the famous Red Lion pub, to which I was able to direct them. They have just gone past again, I trust suitably refreshed. Amongst them was a lovely red M Type Midget (Now irrespective of price, there's a car I'd like more than most....you can keep your multi window hippy wagon). They are en route to Llandrindod Wells and I can't think of a better way to spend a sunny afternoon (Keep it clean folks)..........poxy Lottery ticket; I only reflected that given our usual poxy weather, having to work often gets in the way of things. For example, yesterday was my day off and the weather was not very good, yet today there's hardly a cloud to be seen

I saw these two in Hastings today:

A different kitten today, white / blue pulling out of Uttoxeter on to the A50. I'm afraid I can't remember the beginning of the reg but it ended 44S.
