We are about to go, we are promised the full range of cliff nesting birds, because we are so far north the chicks are still on the nest, so should be good.
 
I am watching Shadow of Fear on Talking Pictures and have just seen a car which I first thought was Frog Eye Sprite but then things looked a bit strange. The headlights were mounted further out on the wings instead of being in the bonnet and the grille mouth looks bigger. The rear end looks like a Sprite, I'm not sure what car it is.

The car known as a 'Spridget' a sort of Austin Healy based on the MG Midget body to save costs?

Always like the look of those Spridgets, but I like an MG-B we have on Craigslist locally. Totally impractical in this climate, actually my Mitsubishi Lancer has larger tires just to clear snow and ice of a typical Midwestern winter. A little nuance some of the fellows who built them passed along.
