The Swallow that Artur Ransome and Ernest Altouynan bought together with Mavis from an Arnside boatbuilder was named after an earlier Swallow in which was at Lanehead when AR used to visit the Collingwoods and in which AR learned to sail.

Mavis Altounyan was AR's favourite 'Swallow' and there seems to be some evidence that Erthur and Evgenia attempted to persuade the Ernest and Dora to let them adopt her.

Obviously your finger is somewhere it shouldn't be!
