Hiya Zoe.

Reading this reminded me of a blonde joke I got by email this week - it's car related. I'll post in the General Chat area as more appropriate there.

Here I am teaching my blonde 16 yr old how to drive a stick shift (it was not an easy day).

welcome Zoe

as they say loads of help on this forum have you joined any clubs yet?

check out Waynes yoof facebook site, in general though the clubs get up to loads of things during the year and even though they involve the cars, tghey can sometime be very sociable outings.

you are in the best spot for the action though as everything things to happen in the Midlands.

good luck and enjoy your wedge ownership..

Hey Zoe!

You've bought Allen's car, nice one [:D] Shouldn't let you down that, I know it served him well before he upgraded to a sprint engined one.

You'll find all the advice you ever need on keeping her going on this forum and as John says, check out the TR Yoof facebook group, just search for TR Yoof and join up.

If your not quite ready for the pipe and slippers yet, its a good gathering of younger Triumph enthusiasts who get together and have a laugh with the cars, make sure you post your pics up there too!

Well Zoe,

It's an assumption of course based on the fact he recently sold it, its the same colour and the picture would appear to have been taken outside the TR Register HQ in Didcot [;)]

Am I wrong??? [8D]

Hope it gives you lots of fun!
