:( HELP! I THINK I'VE GOT CLAUSTROPHOBIA!!!

I had been out most of the day in Humphrey, enjoying the sun, breeze and feeling really free.....I then had to go out in the 4x4 to get some LPG.....Anyway as I climbed into the beast, closed the door, then suddenly I felt a deep sense of panic as if all the walls were closing in on me....I looked up for salvation but there was a roof over my head!! :oops:

I felt as if I had been a naughty boy and locked in my room for punishment and not allowed out until I amended my ways!!
I felt as if I had been put in a coffin and it was being screwed down!
In my Naval life I had to spend 4 days in a Diesel submarine in the Indian Ocean - it felt the same!! :sick:

is there any cure for this :ohmy: :ohmy: ...........maybe an open-top 4x4!! or a tin opener!!

How can anyone criticise an open top??
:woohoo:

You know, I spent a fortune on deodorant before I realised
that people didn't like me anyway!

I know we all 'tounge in cheek' refer to MG standing for money grabbing but, seriously, where do these morons get the idea that owning a 'sports car' is that expensive?

Not all Ferraris, Lambos, Astons etc are sports cars and not all sports cars are Ferraris, Lambos, Astons etc.

as Jan said - it's the old green eyed monster for sure - sad, ill-informed b*ggers :lol:

thier loss ;)
