"This is really comfortable isn't it?"

Quote from my 70 year old mum 100 miles into a drive from surrey to suffolk. She needed a lift and I like to get the beast out for a run from time to time lol. Funnily enough she went quiet when we left the motorways for the last bit

My mum would smack me across the legs with her wet Marigolds if I called her 'the beast'.

Mums are just great. Mine was 83 on boxing day. She never learnt to drive which is why I believe she is still a fearless old girl. She's still annoyed that I refused to let her ride pillion on my Hayabusa.

I took my 80 year old Mum out in my Caterham and gave it the beans to see how she did....

"that's nice dear"!
