Vera!!!!!!! David's friend Peter always had names for his cars so when David first arrived in the UK and bought his first car, this Vauxhall Wyvern... Peter called it Vera! Here we are preparing to head off for our Honeymoon.
Vera wasn't a good car to go camping in, I had to try and sleep in the front with the steering wheel in my way while David slept in the back... It wasn't long before I suggested we buy one of those old London Taxi's with all that room in the back.
We did buy a London Taxi, four of them in the end spending many long weeks, months and the odd weekend driving off somewhere wonderful and sleeping in luxury! (we turned the back into a big double bed at night) Peter called our Taxi 'Tabitha'. We shipped her home to Australia in 1970 and owned her for 26 years.
