Well, Bud, it would appear the folks in Southern part of the country are
more MG-oriented than the Scots! During my 8-day stay at the beginning of
December, I saw one red CB roadster on two separate days, at least one BGT
every day of my stay there (a different car each time, including one white,
rubber-bumper BGT that passed me on the motorway in Somerset and I was doing
80 mph!), and at least one MGF every day of the visit.
Considering the weather could best be described as less-than-pleasant during
my visit, I'd say that was a good tally.
Happy Holidays!
Lawrie
