I took the dogs a wander round newmillerdam late last year, first time in 10 years I went back,

lots of single mums walking kids and dogs, struck up a conversation with a couple, started by them, must be a pickup place??

For dogs?

The Scimitar is the new Marina Coupe, don't you know!

The Marina Coupe is irreplaceable.... 

Be thankful for small mercies...

I always wondered why the doors (2) on the Marina coupe looked so small and out of proportion.

The answer is simple.......BL were too tight to design and manufacture larger doors, so used the same doors as found on the 4 door Marina saloon.


Still, this minor point didn't stop the young Sir Tigger from getting his end away.

Poor access to rear seat = Harder for them to escape.

I imagine he was also familiar with Rohypnol in order to subdue the more active 'Darzett farm girls'.

For when Cider doesn't quite get the job done, you mean?.

Talking about cider, Cider with Rosie is a lovely read of old, before even the Marina came about, and even before Marina featured in Stingray, so back in the day of Opti's childhood!

Well, I had to get involved in this thread........!

Lord Opti preferred Fanny by gaslight.

Just had an email from eBay to tell me the barn find Marina has been relisted. Last chance, Tigger.

I vaguely remember Muffin the Mule.

I got up to all sort of unspeakable things when under the influence.

Only an hour to go
He's probably stocking up on condoms and mustard paint supplies before he snipe bids it

What do you mean Opti "vaguely";  even I remember him just before it ceased to be broadcast

You misunderstand, Lizzie, Opti didn't watch it, he did it.

That was one of the set books in my GCE English Literature course at school along with The Taming of the Shrew by Shakespeare & Arms and The Man by Shaw.

Of the 3 books that was the most enjoyable..

Indeed, and of course Cider With Rosie was the read back in the day, even outside of the GCE or any other course work. Lady Chatterley's Lover was also the read if we could get hold of a copy, but I bet Opti had one!!
