Mother recalls ‘surreal’ moment sons impressed the King with model car
Charles took a close interest in the handmade, model Land Rover which was made by Georgina Ward’s father-in-law.
The mother of two boys who fascinated King Charles with their handmade Land Rover said it was “very surreal” to meet him.
Georgina Ward, 35, and her family: husband Simon, 45; and sons William, six; and Oliver, three; went to Sandringham, Norfolk, to catch a glimpse of Charles as he attended a Sunday church service at St Mary Magdalene Church.
“It was a very surreal experience,” Mrs Ward, a nurse, who lives with her family in East Winch, Norfolk, told the PA news agency.
“He came back and was asking questions about whether it was handmade and whether it ran, whether it used a pedal and if we’d crashed into any trees.”
She added: “We go out with it most Sundays, so it just made sense to take it today and show the King.”
