Three walkers descend damp woodland paths. The property ahead was once lived in by a local vet and his wife, a Mrs Peggy Gilchrist, who once loaded a sow, a female pig, into the rear of her Morris Traveller and took it to be serviced by a local boar at a pig farm down the road. The sow exited the car keenly and was duly serviced but could not be persuaded to re-enter the confines of the Morris Traveller to return home, where in due course she would obviously produce a litter. One of our number had the unenviable job of catching her and forcing her into the car, much to her chagrin, where her fat backside actually dislodged one of the car's rear twin doors, much to Mrs Gilchrist's chagrin! Some solution must have been found - I assume he just replaced the car door where it came from - Morris Travellers were very resilient vehicles, built to last. I hope the sow had a great litter and enjoyed her day trip.
