Bill George and John Lumley shared a passion for turbulence but had other passionate interests too.
John Lumley standing in front of a restored 1951 Mk. VI Bentley, August 4, 2007, which he did in his “spare” time. John took great pride and pleasure as he acted as a chauffeur for weddings of close friends. Photo taken by Shelley Blackler (the groom’s mother and dear friend of the Lumleys). Photo supplied by John’s daughter, Jennifer. John wrote a book Still Life with Cars: An Automotive Memoir, McFarland & Co., Jefferson, North Carolina and London, 2005 (ISBN 0-7864-2053-7).
