Highland Sports Coupe project...
Fantastic! Very quirky. It reminds me of this little cabriolet spotted at Beaulieu some years ago ... I'm afraid  can't remember the owner's name.

This is Gerald Walker’s car - he is in the background.

There's a lovely word, purfling, never heard it before. Had to look it up...

Yes indeed. There are purfling dealers who offer an extraordinary range of patterns and sizes.

I learned something else today... I pointed out to my upholsterer friend that the leather was thicker than I expected, he said that if I had scraped it to make it thinner I would be a sciver. His local shoe making factory had a whole sciving department apparently. I've found my perfect job.

If you missed being a sciver, perhaps there is time to become a  saggar makers bottom knocker?

I was looking at saggars in the Potteries Museum the other weekend...
