Passport Enabled
Mayhew has passed away and now most of the family ignored me. Each year on the anniversary of his daughter’s death, old Mayhew would at least drive me to his daughter’s grave. She loved me and gave me my name. Recently only young master Thomas had visited me. We had fun as he pretended to drive me. When he fell and hit his head on the tree stump I knew my time was up.
So no longer will I hear laughter and be Daisy May the space craft. No longer will I fly the American flag. Apparently I been given a vehicle passport and I am on my way to Yorkshire, to a collector who liked my patina! So it sounds like I will not even get revamp. Heaven help me.

A sad tale, but a glimmer of hope at the end, at least he’ll be cared for in old age! Nice voice.
Thank you Iain. I always find it sad to see vehicles left to rot. For me its either restore or recycle. Once I would have loved to have a Chev pick up to restore and use.
At least he is going somewhere he is going to be wanted 🙂
Thats true – at least I hope so. Thank you for commenting
Ahh, a take from the POVs of the truck. Nice! As Iain said, this is a sad tale. But the voice is so straightforward, honest, and appreciative of life. I really like this. Excellent job!
I meant POV* 😀
Thank you so much – that’s such a kind comment.
Haha! A sad but cute story about the end of the life of an old truck. Loved it Mike!
Thank you so much PJ. I do love old road vehicles and their history
They are very interesting!
It’s a terrible thing to grow old, and even worse to grow old alone.
Growing really old can be frustrating – To have nothing and no one to help is terrible.
Trucks have feelings too! Thanks for confirming wht I always felt!
My story is called Daisy May
To me they do, thank you, I am pleased to get your feedback. Mike
Clever, give the truck a voice and personality! I’m glad he’s going to a place where he’ll be wanted 🙂
I just hope the truck has a warm garage [ with a view ] thank you for your kind comment.
Oh dear! I kinda feel sorry for the truck.
Thank you Jacqueline, I have asked the new owner of Daisy May to provide a warm dry garage.
