'You can do it in an MG'
by Jilly cooper.
Sports cars - Love'em or hate'em, you can't ignore'em.
A delight to debs, a menace to maiden aunts, policemen and traffic wardens.A
symbol of freedom to some, of rebellion to others. Symbol of all sorts of
things to psychologists - the sports car remains something of an enigma.
What does Jilly Cooper think?
* An article follows, in which Jilly 'fesses' up. Sensitive readers are
advised to read no further. =8^O
Jilly tells it like this,
And when one doesn't have a flat { apartment? } a car is the only private
place you can go to neck - particularly in winter. I was kissed for the
first time in a yellow MG called Piglet with a strap around the bonnet. I
was wearing a dress without straps, which got lower and lower until dawn and
the milkman sent me scuttling in confusion to my digs.
Wah-Hoooo,
Scotty,
Adelaide,Australia. { who notes that 'Eric" has a Yellow MGB ??? }
