He obtained a legal education at Trinity College, Cambridge and briefly joined his father's law firm. Wilding was a first class cricketer and a keen motorcycle enthusiast. His tennis career started with him winning the Canterbury Championships aged 17. He developed into a leading tennis player in the world during 1909-1914 and is considered to be a former world No. 1.

He was employed as production manager at the Raymond Review Bar in Soho for several years and also in the theatres on Fred Olsen cruise ships.Peter was first employed by Mathew Corbett for the Sooty Shows in 1976 as a stage manager, but he also puppeteered, made and repaired sets and created and painted scenery and props. He also wrote a number of scripts, appeared as an extra and composed some of the music for the show. He worked with the Sooty Show for the Thames TV productions and theatre tours around the country. Mathew said Peter was the inspiration behind the idea of the Sooty Show having a theme/story e.g. The House that Sooty Built rather than the show being a series of sketches. He was often Sweeps dad and operated Sweeps voice. His was the voice behind Sweeps rendition of Nessum Dorma in one particular production.Peter left the Sooty Show in 1985 to set up a retail business with a partner in Westhoughton, Lancs. selling toiletries and fancy goods. This ended when his partner unexpectedly died and Peter then moved to Bolton. He had stayed in contact with Mathew and re-started his career with Sooty in 1993. He worked continually with the show with Mathew, who retired in 1998, and then with Richard Cadell who bought the Company circa 2000. Peters role was as stage manger and puppeteer, as required.Peter ceased to be needed for The Sooty Show in the early 2000s although he still retained four of the puppets and could be called upon if required.

Registration No: MVS 379Chassis No: S836583BWMOT: Exempt A 'Special Equipment' model that was supplied new to America and repatriated during 1992The subject of a 'body off, chassis up' restoration in 2007 with further works continuing until 2010Uprated with an alloy radiator for better cooling and a five-speed manual gearbox for more relaxed high-speed cruisingCurrent registered keeper since 2011 and used for runs to the Goodwood Revival etcBy the time the XK150 was launched in May 1957, Jaguar had won Le Mans four times and was about to do so again. Though the newcomer was a logical progression of the XK140, subtle changes to the bodywork gave this final iteration of the XK a distinctly more modern air. The split windscreen was replaced with a single sweep of toughened glass and the scuttle height was raised, along with the waistline. Inside, the walnut dashboard of the XK140 was replaced by one trimmed in leather. Thinner doors gave more interior space. The standard engine was the 3.4-litre DOHC straight six unit of the XK140, but a larger 3.8 litre version became available in 1959 with buyers able to opt for a triple carburettor ‘S’ version of either powerplant. The XK150 was the first production Jaguar to be equipped with disc brakes and at launch was offered in Fixed Head Coupe (FHC) and Drophead Coupe guise, the Roadster following in 1958. By the time the model was superseded by the E-Type, some 4,445 FHCs had been produced.One of the later, more desirable 3.8-litre engined cars, chassis S836583BW was supplied new to America complete with the ‘Special Equipment’ package and automatic transmission. Repatriated to the UK during 1992, the Jaguar was the subject of a ‘body off, chassis up’ restoration with further works continuing up until 2010. As well as being repainted, retrimmed and treated to an engine overhaul, the 2+2-seater was uprated with a five-speed manual gearbox for a more immersive driving experience and better high-speed cruising plus an alloy radiator for improved cooling. Acquired by the current registered keeper in 2011, the XK150 has been used for runs to the Goodwood Revival etc. Summed-up by the seller as ‘a very good-looking car ready for further adventures’, ‘MVS 379’ is offered for sale with V5C Registration Document and history file.

A logical progression of the XK140, subtle changes to the bodywork gave this final iteration of the XK a distinctly more modern air. The split windscreen was replaced with a single sweep of toughened glass and the scuttle height was raised, along with the waistline. The bonnet was widened and the walnut dashboard of the XK140 was replaced by one trimmed in leather. Thinner doors gave more interior space. The standard engine was the 3.4-litre DOHC straight six unit of the XK140, which was later increased to 3.8-litres. Still more power became available from 1958 in the form of the 'S' engine. The XK150 was the first production Jaguar to be equipped with disc brakes and was initially offered in Fixed Head Coupe (FHC) and Drophead Coupe guise, the Roadster following in 1958. By the time production ended in October 1960 to make way for the E-Type, some 4,445 FHCs had been produced.Manufactured on 13th January 1959, this home market Manual overdrive example was supplied new via Henlys Ltd to a J W Bradstreet of Goring-On Sea and registered ‘WLM 725’ – a mark it pleasingly retains. Originally painted in cream with red interior, it is 1 of just 1,368 RHD examples built and benefits from the factory-fitted Special Equipment (SE) pack which comprised: front fog lamps, wire wheels and twin exhausts. Having spent some 20 years in South Africa (where it was restored c.2010), the car is now finished in Black with Red interior and is fitted with a MKIX 3.8 engine. The extensive restoration included a new interior and the fitment of A/C. Treated to a new clutch and front calliper overhaul in 2020, this handsome XK comes with a heritage certificate and a collection of old MOT's and invoices.

Some marks and knocks as expected consistent with age. The lower horizontal wooden dial fillet is slightly chipped.The dial is of a good even colour, some very light surface marks in places.

AN UNUSUAL EARLY VICTORIAN MAHOGANY REGULATOR WITH 24-HOUR DIALBy Barraud, LondonThe case with a shallow arch, circular glazed dial opening, above rectangular glazed panel door, on plinth base, the 11in. circular silvered dial, signed [perhaps a replacement?] with sweep minutes, and subsidiaries for seconds and twenty-four hours, the substantial plates with angled shoulders, six large turned pillars, six crossings to the wheels with deadbeat escapement and maintaining power, the glazed mercurial pendulum suspended from a substantial ‘A’-frame mounted on the seatboard, 201cm highCondition reportThe Mercury is temporarily stored separately. One brass cased weight. One weight pulley and key. Case: We’ll figured veneers to the front, especially to the hood and base. Please see additional images on our web for filled former fixings holes in sides. Perhaps these were for some solid fixing?Holes filled on backboard behind movement with a relatively modern wood filler. Would be better removed?Two pairs of additional fixing holes for the pendulum A frame on movement seat board. Two L shaped fixings on backboard to firm up the A frame, once in place. Currently the rear seat board screw holes are covered by forward position of the A frame. Screw hole ties in with risers beneath. Three small vacant holes and two filled holes in seatboard between lower pillars. Beat adjustment bridge has a spare screw hole and two locators which might have been for a cock which held in place the pendulum suspension block. The current suspension block is clearly a replacement.The substantial movement has been well cared for over the years but is now dusty and will require a full service before running.Unusually for Barraud the movement and dial is unnumbered. It may be that it is a replacement, possibly once enamel? The style of the turning to the foot of the dial feet does not match the foot turning of the pillars. The five minute markers and seconds numerals are heavy block. Substantial plates, canted on the upper corners. Wheel work of six crossings.
