gone ...

[ramtops]

having talking about it for ages, we finally put the Ape* on Autotrader on Monday night.

at 6.30, someone phoned, asked a few questions, and said they'd come and see it. From 90 miles away ... We hadn't had a chance to tippex out the scratches from when someone keyed it, but we did get it valeted on Sunday, so we hoped for the best.

he had a good look and Pete took him out for a drive in it, up the windy road to Failand (the Ape always romped up that road), lad made me a derisory offer, and we bargained up to my price. He paid cash, and took him away. He was only a young lad, so ghod knows what the insurance will cost him.

six years I've had that car, and he's been enormous, huge fun, and has never let me down. I'll miss him (but my creaky old bones won't).
