Heading out on vacation!

Wolseley 25 hp shooting brake towing a Golden Eagle house trailer, 1950. Looks like it might be a slow trip, especially in the mountains.

Interesting.

I wonder what the contraption on top of the trailer might be?

Looks kinda like a kayak.

Yes, of course.  I see it now.

You have listed the "proper" English term (shooting brake) for what we over here in "the Colonies" call a station wagon, but don't the English refer to a house trailer

as a "caravan".  Or, am I thinking about what it is called in Australia ?

I just used the terms that the article used. I never have been really grammatically correct.  I though others might like the pictures.
