Found a Coventry Evening Telegraph souvenir. Here is the cover and an advert for Rootes cars from 1962. They were all beautiful cars but the Humbers were special. Owned a Humber Sceptre Mk II myself.

How proud you must feel, Stephen, to have worked on such an iconic piece of art.

23rd March 2026 marks 70 years since Queen Elizabeth laid the foundation stone for the then new Coventry Cathedral, which was in 1956.
I've found a link to the Coventry Evening Telegraph article for the 65th anniversary: Today marks 65th anniversary of Queen Elizabeth laying the first stone at new Coventry Cathedral
Next year, 25th May 2027 will see the 65th anniversary of the Consecration of Coventry Cathedral.

My wife was lucky to attend the consecration, she was chosen to represent her school, St. Christophers and it happened to be her 7th birthday.
