    No need for airbags in that particular MGB, at least.

    Oh, speaking of MG.
    In a past life (one I wouldn't mind forgetting, in many respects) I worked for an Oxford Univ. spin-off that was headquarted in the small nearby city/town of Abingdon. Abingdon was the one-time home of MG. While I preferred to stay at a really nice hotel in Oxford that was partly located in an ancient building, usually I stayed at a much cheaper one in Abingdon that was perfectly serviceable* but perfectly bland. Well, it had one un-bland "feature": the central part of the building was octagonal -- an homage to MG.

    :p
    Many bad memories of that short, tumultuous era of my life -- although I still quite love the city of Oxford. Our daughter did her masters degree there. 'twas quite a few years later, though. :)

    The guy next door (a renter) just used a string trimmer to
    mow his whole yard. He also doesn't pay for trash pickup.
    He's got old tires by the side of the house.
    I'm hoping the landlord evicts them soon.

    The first pothole they hit - here is what will happen;
    the cart flips up, violently,
    breaks off the muffler and bumper,
    possibly breaking the dude's leg,
    the sudden drop of the rear of the vehicle would cause the hatch to slam down on the dude's noggin,
    breaking the window and possibly the dude's neck.

    Some people's kid's....

    ^^^ schitt man, whenever I'm out on the road, I think I'm gonna get a contact and pop pos, with the way things are around here these days. that or hanging out in a nice breeze in my backyard with my no-jobbed, grown-up at home neighbor, stepping out every hour. Nothin' against it or those who partake, but the citizenry around here are taking liberties with the possession law. Get fluffy, drive around, play on your phone, yay...
