Manna from heaven

[Noel]

We found this very nice print rolled up in our garden this afternoon. No idea how it got there or where it came from. Carefully dried it out. Manna from heaven. Its quite large too.

Many years ago, I built a kit car - a 30s-style MG sort of thing, using Morris Minor parts, mostly.

There were some quite nice wire-wheel style wheel covers available at the time, but only in sets of four, which was a shame, as the spare was exposed and a fifth one would have been nice, but the manufacturer/importer would not be moved on supplying a single, so I resolved to make a cover for the spare, rather than buying eight and having three left over.

At that time, my road was notoriously potholed and, before I started to sort out the cover,  I was working in the front garden one day and was very nearly hit by a flying wheel cover.

 

It was an exact match for the four in the set that I had just bought.
