I once met someone who made replicas of medieval armour for re-enactment societies. He had a garden with several dismantled Triumph Heralds and assured me that the thickness of steel used in medieval armour was identical to the thickness of steel used in the Triumph Herald. He cut shapes from the cars bodywork and transformed them into replica litems of armour....Maybe they should make a programme on the wonder of engineering that was the Triumph Herald.....
With peace and consolation hath dismist, And calm of mind all passion spent...
