i've become a stereotype!

Post by DonDon » Sun Sep 10, 2023 11:24 am

As I was driving away from Sainsbury's this morning, someone else was just parking up. A beardy old man in shorts and a baseball cap. He was driving a Mazda MX-5.

I meet all of the other criteria and I had an MX-5 until I traded it in for the Z4 a few months ago.

When I was on 617 Sqn in the first gulf war we had tee shirts made up with Roger Melly astride a Tornado saying ‘Saddam won’t move? These F**kers will shift him!’ Can you imagine doing something like that now! 🙄
