That Ford/Morris crossbreed is actually quite interesting, but really, Rich, you went onto Craigslist?!? I responded to an ad on there when I was looking to hire a cleaner, following the rapid decline of the standards practised by the previous domestic support person. I now have an absolutely lovely new friend with many common interests and a love of similar music who comes round to do some deep cleaning and then allows herself to be put off by my constant talking, so we end up saying "f*** the housework, let's drink more tea" and have a really pleasant few hours in each other's company. It was my fault that the work took too long so, being the reasonable geezer that I am, I give her the right money anyway as the therapy was worth every penny of it, and I can always buy another cleaner. Craig's bloody list did that! I both love and hate the site, but mostly I'm scared of it. Just stay away from "personal services" mate, that way lies eternal damnation!
Hahaha, Craigslist eh, ya mucky wee pup!

You mention a Ford/Morris crossbreed. Old MG's with low gearing benefit from adapting a Sierra gearbox. Upping the ratios doesn't half give the old car a boost. But, like all things, it makes me wonder who first squeezed a cow's tit and thought: "I'm going to drink that!" Who would think of an old MG, "You know what? I'm going to fit a Sierra
gearbox to that."
I haven't a clue what Craigslist is, a sort of bucket list of things to do before you die perhaps. But I am impressed that you have yourself a cleaning fairy. We have one too, we also have an ironing fairy and a gardening fairy or as it's a husband/wife team, fairies.
