  • August 1st means taxing a different car for the month. This time I am using my newly acquired Rover 620 that I actually bought about 2 years ago.
    Thank you to my friend Neil for all of the hard work on this lovely old motor.

    In 2003 I was presented with a company car. I was given a choice of car, albeit a limited choice and as it turned out not really a choice at all. I could theoretically have had a Citroen C5, a Nissan Primera, a Vauxhall Vectra or a Renault Laguna, but that would have meant waiting for one to be born and in the meanwhile I wouldn’t have had a car which wasn’t ideal. So, a Renault Laguna that they had sitting around it was. It was ok, nice and light inside, comfy, looked quite smart and I wasn’t bothered about its terrible reliability reputation because it wasn’t my car. I was quite happy with my new Renault Laguna but for one thing - that stupid key. Couldn’t attach it to proper keys because the hole you were supposed to put was in such a position that your proper keys would scratch around and rattle. Couldn’t not put it in the hole and leave it in my pocket and also if I put it in my back pocket and forgot about it then I might snap it. Which I did. An agreeable car, if you’re not bearing the financial burden of operating it, ruined by a stupid key.

    The Rover 600 series, what a lovely looking car, I'd go as far as saying a beautiful car. It's great that Harry Secombe is back and being used as a family car again and that you are enjoying it. Long may it continue, hopefully until it's tax exempt!

    I had a Rover 820. Old but a lovely vehicle. The car I currently own is 20 years old.

    Trees are masters of disguise - you might not see it again! 😁🌳
    A random Elvis impersonator popped up at 11:25! After a bit of internet research I discover it is a character called 'Nathan Barley'. Perhaps he is an associate of Mick Hucknal? 😀
    Was that a new Mustard-Tune during the intro? At any rate I don't recall hearing it before. Its really rather jolly!
    A nice effect at the playground sending the background into 1950s black & white while keeping Captain M in present day colour.
    I hope Cabbage Lion & Poppy were able to join in the picnic!
    Biscuits! 😄

    "Don't know where the lid's gone so they might have gone off by now" - throwaway line of the year! 🤣 Good to see Sally Haircomb in action (apart from the steering wheel which looks well out of place imho.)

      Thank you for picking on that, I have been wanting to say it for years 😆

    "I'm going to pretend with my Rover 600 to all the people around that I've got myself a Renault Megane". Good idea Mustard, now you'll never lose your 600 key.

    11:25 Oh, I went there the other month. I think I must have missed half of it though.

    I live opposite a nice little park which I often go over and play on the swings and I am nearly 50. My wife tells me we should never stop swinging 🤔

    Lovely day then, shocking fuel economy from quarter tank used but worth it for the drive.

    Wouldn't it be shorter to go up smithy bridge Rd and turn onto wildhouse lane, rather than go round and past the lake ??
