Ivy & Cyril

Cyril has a passion for travel and Boney M. He spends many hours tinkering with vintage motorbikes and plans to whisk Ivy from their wedding on his recently renovated BSA Rocket Goldstar.
Her friends in the knitting circle admire Ivy’s incomparable zest for life and quirky sense of fashion. A house-keeper by day it took just one look into Cyril’s eyes and she knew he was the one!
