Gloria Salt
An attractive and athletic young girl, Miss Salt is engaged to Sir Gregory Parsloe-Parsloe at the start of Pigs Have Wings, and has in the past been romantically linked to both Jerry Vail and Orlo Vosper. A sporty type, she loves tennis and golf (she has a handicap of 6 at St Andrews) and objects to "Tubbby" Parsloe's physique, insisting he cut back on the pleasures of the table, much to his resentment. She later realises she cannot countenance marriage to a man with such chins, and runs off with Vosper, her true love.

Famous quotes containing the word salt:
“Come, dear children, let us away;
Down and away below!
Now my brothers call from the bay,
Now the great winds shoreward blow,
Now the salt tides seaward flow;
Now the wild white horses play,
Champ and chafe and toss in the spray.”
—Matthew Arnold (1822–1888)
