In the background is what appears to be a very early Seven - the owner believes 1922 / 23. It does feature on the A7CA Chassis Register with a query against it, but only gives its registration number of RNL 9450. Both myself and another Morris Forum member have asked for more details and I've suggested to the owner that he updates the chassis register via the online notification form for which I've provided him a link.

I think the word chummy is derived from the Hindi word for good friend. Brought back in the 19th C or earlier by the East India Company — along with pajamas, Jodhpurs and fart.
So perhaps it pre dates Longbridge by some margin.
