Found this photo I had taken some time ago at Sewerby Hall near Bridlington. They have a good collection of Amy Johnson artifacts and memorabilia.
Cant seem to get the photo to     come with the post
Hope this works

The mayor in the passenger seat (assuming from the chain of office) looks like a slimmer version of Oliver Hardy.

I looked at this and briefly thought the three blokes behind the car are in a "who looks least like
paddington" contest, with the labels tied to their lapels. Then I thought no wonder the mayor has such a smirk, Amy is changing gear with his right knee. Then I noticed that there are actually three people in the car and the one to the left of the mayor is wearing a Diddymans hat, which morphs into the jumper of another bloke in the crowd.
I might need a lie down, but could someone explain what is going on here?

Or is that a reflection in the windscreen glass ?
