What a super thing to behold!
n.b. I believe a 'gulp' is the collective term for swallows.

Lorna is an exceptional craftsman who discussed how she is now teaching herself to use the English Wheel. Her upholstery talents were also on show in a newly restored saloon.
The man who owns the black and white saloon nearest the camera is also restoring a WH Swallow like Lorna’s, they are very special cars that exude Art Deco styling.

Lorna I believe persuaded her father to let her have the car, the proviso being she had to have it back on the road within Twelve months, it was. A woman with immense determination.

Looks like it was a nice meet. Would liked to have been there with "Trundles" but no chance this year. Maybe next time.
