  • Morris was a huge car manufacturer in England. We had a Morris 1100 there, which was a basic, but reliable car.

    By that time Morris was part of BMC which bought up a lot of older brands and got into the badge engineering game. I got hold of an older second hand MG variant. Nice little car - twin SUs, zippy, lots of wood trim inside, BUT they suffered the same rear subframe rot as the minis of the time did. One day I went over a humpback bridge at a silly rate of knots and the subframe broke and the rear wheels literally fell off. I kid you not. Please refer to other threads for the definition of literally.

    The Mini was also sold as a Morris in the UK back in the good ol' days.
    I think of marques like Morgan (with wooden frames) and TVR (cool little British sportscars) besides Morris and Cooper and Rover and Jaguar and whatnot (edit: and Wolseley and Vauxhall and Triumph and Morris Garages (MG) and...)
    So many idiosyncratic but cool (in their own way) British auto marques up into the early 1970s.
    Some are still around, at least sort of.

  • Did you forget Austin-Healey's ?
  • MG and Morris were different marques, even though the same "Morris" (William) was namesake of both (or vice versa -- "namesake" is a funny word).
    MG was long in Abingdon, UK (just a few miles from Oxford). I used to stay at a hotel when in Abingdon for work at a hotel with a big octagonal main "clubhouse" -- an homage to MG.

    Genuinely curious here - can someone explain the pug pic craze to me, please? I thought it was just @Viking64 who was weird, but no, he started a trend.

    And now, bake shops are joining in.

    Why do people love and breed these dogs into narrower and narrower breathing passages? It's not cute, they're suffocating. If someone were next to you, breathing like this, you'd give them a bag of Halls, or a bucket of Vaporub, if not trach them on the spot with a knife and McDonald's straw.

    Scott, one of our Poms passed due to a collapsed trachea a few months ago and nothing we could do about it. Had some friends that got 2 pups from us and they lost one of their's also due to this condition. Broke my heart and their's since not a lot can be done to fix this condition. Weight management can help, but from what I understand it's pretty common in breeds like Pomeranians, Pugs, French Bulldogs and other small dogs.
