He's not everyone's cup of tea I know, but thought you Morgan boys might be interested in these pics.

I spent a bit of time with Richard Hammond after his bad 300mph crash back in 2006, and you'll be pleased to know that when the doctors said he was ok
to get back behind the wheel again, it was his Morgan he took out for the first drive.

Not sure of the model, but he's a real fan. It was only a quick blast as he would tire very quickly, but he loved being back behind the wheel after his time in
hospital, he's a real petrolhead.

Agreed.
If her hands were to be tied behind her back, would Kate Humble be struck dumb? If so, would somebody please get on and do it? :)
