I didn't even know you had a Capri.

He's a bit of a dark horse is John, or is that his tribal name.

I had 2 Capris back in the day, I doubt I would enjoy the low ride now, but for a 30+ boy racer it was a great car.

Never owned one but have been in a few. Nice car.

I had a Mark 1 Escort 1300 Estate. A bit like a Capri but with a shorter bonnet and higher suspension. And not so fast....

Escort Mexico was one of my favourites.

So not like a Capri at all!!!! Never had an escort or Focus, but I did have a couple of Orion Ghias, that was a nice drive.

An Escort with a boot.

I did drive quite a few Escorts from the works hire car pool, and the Orion drove totally differently to them, and of course it was a lot more luxurious than the bog standard escort.

I had an XR3i Cabriolet. That was fun. You're right about the Ghia luxury. I had a Cortina 2l Ghia and later a Sierra Sapphire Ghia.

The Granada Ghia was a nice drive too. Never owned one but use to service the company directors one back in the day.

Stand by for a shock. I just renewed our annual holiday insurance with the bank.

Probably a typo or you promised them a mention on Saturday

It was my polyps that are now removed! But I'd expected inflation increases in the elements for other ailments and age but no!

And the mention on Saturday.....

Re polyps. Bet that made your eyes water.

After last night's rain we woke up to a power cut, first cup of tea, just gone 08.30.

Should have sent the misses out to Costa.

Nearest one could be 8 miles away if there is one there.
