Big Ol' Jet Airliner.

Although we've lived within walking distance of Syon House for about 7 years, before today LOH & I had only ever been into the gardens. Today we stumped up the cash & had a nosey indoors. Jolly splendid it is in there too!
An elderly gent who was one of the guides was informative & entertaining. "Some of the paintings in this room are quite interesting, but none of them are very good", quoth he.
He seemed very taken with LOH's Mum too...

Unfortunately photos are not permitted in the house, so this was taken from the glasshouse instead.
