The Austin was the first car that my father bought new. The caravan was bought second-hand c.1957. The car had 42 b.h.p. and towing the caravan into the West Country and Wales was, I think, "interesting". Although the car has been lined up with the caravan and is carrying its extended wing mirrors for towing, we are not ready for the off, as the waste water bucket for the caravan sink is still in position in front of the wheel and, behind it, the Calor Gas cylinder appears still to be connected. A young sps1955 is visible, and, just to my left, my mother's corgi is sitting behind the car. Unknown location. Scanned from a print in the family collection.
