Sue Tuck was the daughter of 'Pop' Propert, General Manager at MG Car Co for almost twenty years, associated with MG since the Bainton Road days, retiring in July 1949, being succeeded by a Riley man, Jack Tatlow. I am told that it is Sue who appears with George in the photo on page 132, MG by McComb ( 1978 ed ) and no she's not wearing 'the dress'. Last I heard they were living in retirement in the Cape, South Africa. Regards Paul Gale TC 7237 Perth, WA

G'day Paul. News from a mutual friend just a little while back is that sadly George Tuck passed away some time ago. Sue (If we may be so bold or familiar) is still alive and well and living, as you correctly note, in Seth Efrica. Regards Jeff
