I’ll save the scooter for the sun!
Mar 24 2008 by Our Correspondent, Huddersfield Daily Examiner
MY civil partner Michael bought me a 50cc scooter for my birthday, for use at our home in Tangier, Morocco.
I celebrated with a lot of riding about in the mountains. Scooters are great in North Africa where it’s nice and warm but you’d never catch me on one in the UK, I’ll stick to my X5, thanks.
It did bring back memories, however, of my first ever mode of transport – a burnt orange colour Suzuki F250 scooter, my cheap and cheerful wheels bought with £45, which was two weeks’ wages from the pickle factory where I worked when I was 17.
I loved that scooter and the independence it brought me. Ahh!
