Hi Mark,

 

Great photos, wish I had gone now instead of working :(.

 

Now don't ask me about cars, not my line at at all barring the odd one, but I could tell you chapter and verse on the Austin fire engines or Bedford MW :-D

 

That Morris Z GPO van ..........they were in service when I was a kid and the Royal Mail ones, nice to see he has all the bits and pieces in the back, wonderful stuff.

 

I see CW was a CPO then....so much for his smokescreen :-D

Hello Richard.The little Morris G.P.O van was something else.It even had the little racks inside with all the tools,and spare phones.A real credit to the owner.I would have loved to have taken it home.

Had a great day at Chatham and will add this one to my 2009 events list and will be taking the Dodge WC63 next year. The show had a great atmosphere and the singers,comedians,reenactors and groups were great.

Just a few of the 581 pictures we took.
