Title: Viscount David Linley Tells of His Mission to Promote Artisans and Craftsmen

QuoteIt was a hot, summer sports day at Bedales. But David Linley, son of Princess Margaret and the Earl of Snowdon, was not competing on the athletics track, he was under his father's car in the school's car park helping mend his broken down Aston Martin DB5.

By the time father and son had fixed it an enthusiastic crowd had gathered. But they were not admiring the car – instantly recognisable as the model favoured by James Bond – they were fascinated by the process of stripping and rebuilding, by the way component parts came together to make a perfect whole.

Although David Linley had by then spent many happy boyhood hours tinkering alongside his father in the privacy of Snowdon's workshop, this was the first time he can remember seeing its impact on others.
