Hi Paula

What a really lovely photo of you and your friend with dad and Emma......just imagine buying a car for ten bob and then lovingly restoring it to its former glory.....she looks a smashing old car.......they just don't make them like that any more....... the old cars had so much character.

I'll bet you were heartbroken when she went.........

pentio.

Hello Everyone - Elizabeth, your photos are great.
How like his mother the younger boy is and how pretty Bella is in her lovely dress.
Great Grandad may look dirty but he is still a good-looking man and I like his hat !........

Hi pentio, brilliant job with those photos.
Yes, Emma had character all right. She just got past it in the end, bless her, and dad got a more modern car. Funny thing was, we never even gave it a name......

Talking about car names..........

Back in the early 80's I bought an old 1961 Singer Vogue and named it "Pearl".

At that time the solg "Pearl's a singer" was in the charts, and it tickled me to call it that.  The name really stuck - wonder where she is now - a great car...

Our Emma got her name because of a song, Tony.
One of those old Musical Films they used to make, it was a song, 'Whoa Emma, you're past your prime,' or some thing, he was singing to his horse.
Well, when Dad's mate helped him shove her through the hastily made hole in the hedge into our garden, she certainly looked past it
Who would have guessed that in the right hands she had so many loyal years left.
