Everyone likes a Birthday

Hello everyone, Brum here.

First, the good news – the museum is open again and I’m surrounded by bright lights and ribbons, you can’t miss me!

Now the even better news. This year is my 30th birthday!

It’s been a while since I last put my tales of life in the museum on a line (I think that’s the word) for everyone to enjoy. Anyone who knows the museum will know Graham, he’s the youngish one, well he sort of looks after me – when he remembers; I think he’s called a Collections Mangler – well, he said that since 2021 is a very special year for me, I could share my wisdom on his B-log (he doesn’t usually swear but I’m sure that is what he said).

So, here goes!

As you all know, I’m very famous, I heard someone call me a celebrity the other day. But there may just possibly be one or two very young children who do not know me, so I had better explain. I live in the museum next to a gorgeous XK140 Jaguar. I am a world-famous, but small car. I have been on TV around the world, I’m fast, lively, always looking for adventures, witty, good-looking and modest. I don’t need a driver; a lady visiting the museum on Monday told the little girl beside her that I was autonomous. I think that’s a compliment. When I was starring on TV, I used to ride around the streets of Bourton on the Water all on my own. (I have been told that may not have been entirely legal, so I had better not say any more about that). Here’s my picture.

You can’t miss me!

Oh! ……. Graham has just told me that I’m not 30 until September, so I’d better not get too excited just yet. Ah well, please come and see me anytime soon, it’s great to have people back in the museum, you can’t miss me, I’m under thousands of bright lights and ribbons – or did I say that already? I will definitely have more to say before September! Toot toot and keep safe.
