[Mgs] My bad (was: Re: Overdrive Numbers)

[Barrie Robinson]

Ahhhh!   Now we are back to nice chats to each other!  On Sunday 
there was no salt (washed away by recent rain), no snow (it hit 10 
degrees C - a record), and no wet (all had dried up).  So I fired up 
the MGB GT V8 and rocketed off for a spin.   I belted down the local 
"fast lonely" road and luckily had slowed down to 80kph just before 
spotting a police cruiser poking out of a side road.   What a 
blast!  Only a clunk from hitting (slowly) a sleeping policeman (not 
in the cruiser) spoiled it just a little (exhaust being replaced by 
"cobra" pipes giving extra 1.5" clearance).  Now wasn't that a nice 
short story?

.............................and Monday?  3" of SNOW !!!!!!!!!!!
