Well actually, it’s longer than thirty years. Good Lord, it’s almost 40!!! Kevin and I met at the tender ages of 16 and 17 respectively. Getting around during our courtship involved the bus but it wasn’t long before Kevin got his first motorbike to travel to his first job and our transport became more exciting! Since then, his dream has been to own a BMW. Every birthday and Christmas, if asked what he’d like, ‘A BMW’ was his standard reply. Of course nobody took a blind bit of notice, although one year my mum put a Matchbox toy BMW on his birthday cake! (She was great at birthday cakes)

This year’s birthday however was different. Kevin received an unusually large cheque as a gift from his mum (“Do you think she’s starting with dementia?”) Apparently, she’d gifted the same amount to her other offspring because, ” I’d like to see you enjoy it while I’m still here!” Not that she’s going anywhere in the foreseeable future! So, He sold his glorious, red Triumph and today, this arrived….

One very happy man!
