Sunbeam Talbot Re-visited


Recently acquired a Sunbeam Talbot 90 Mk II 1953. I used to run one of these cars as my every day transport over 30 years ago, and then was into Morgans for a number of years. My Morgan 1951 Series 1 4/4 is shown on the left, the chap who bought it from me then hawked it round the advertising circuit. The picture is taken from an advertisement for Scottish Bank personal loans which landed on my doormat a few months after I had parted with it!

FIRST MUSINGS - 5 March 2007

I was wondering today about setting up a profitable sideline for my eventual retirement. Something cheap to manufacture, easily transportable, and a surefire winner in the home and international markets. The answer came readily in the shape of a simple piece of decent wood, oblong shaped but with nicely chamfered corners, oiled and polished. A "Stumbling Block". Placed strategically in your entrance hall, just next to the hat & coat stand, will bring you up with a round turn as you enter the sitting room, and act as a constant reminder not to engage in that irritating habit that has been driving your wife/partner to distraction.
