It was only the gearbox selector fork which used to jam. Dad fixed it in about ten minutes I think.
The blur is a swinging cricket bat

Mary Peter and Gyp with Grandpa George Speller in the deck chair. We did not use the back garden, it was full of hens and droppings and bare earth. A consequence of food rationing |

George in the front garden but more interesting (sorry Peter) is Dad’s
first car which was inherited from Grandpa Allen. A Vauxhall. We had
holidays in this all five of us wedged in with Peter on Mum’s knee in
the front and Mary and Anne surrounded by luggage. We went to Seahouses in
it and broke down on the way.
