       It’s only funny coz it’s true.

       Y’know, I’ve loved my little faux-MG. It cost 3/5 of bugger all to buy, even less to run and I’ve had precisely zero problems with it. But, Mrs Gantt has now bought herself a rice-burner and bequeathed me the SUV, so it’s time for the MG to go up on TradeMe.

       I’ll be happy to swap it for a Shelby, if anyone’s interested. I’d even be willing to pay shipping. And no, the offer does not extend to Contempt’s little Sunbird!
