Her husband was known as ‘Two Jags John’. It is not surprising then that Beryl Little is often known to her friends as ‘Three Jags Beryl’. You see, she loves classic cars and Jaguars in particular, being the proud owner of a Jaguar XJS V12, a supercharged Jaguar S-Type R and a fully-fledged racing E-Type. Add to that a Mercedes SLK and a V8 Range Rover Sport, and you might deduce that she likes her cars to be powerful too.

Amanda Hanley is an OX contributor, business owner, interior designer and mother of four. Breathing life into residential interiors for over 30 years, whilst juggling a busy family life, Amanda has a wealth of experience in interior design. As well as providing a friendly design service, she also has a showroom in Burford, full of bespoke furniture and beautiful items for the home, and a dedicated fabric and wallpaper studio. We pull up a chair and chat informally to Amanda about her career and typical day.
