Hi all,
Joined up here when I found this thread about the old wagons on the Prom at Blackpool. We spent a lot of happy Saturdays at Blackpool between '67 and '75. I loved these old lorries as a kid, and would always get Dad to fork out for a boat trip we didn't really want so I could go on the wagons!
As well as those shown here there were at least two Commers painted orange, and a Morris water tanker still in army green.
Here's a few photos, in the one of me looking very innocent in '67 there's a Willy Jeep very far in the distance.
Sadly a leaking roof in 1980 destroyed all my photo albums, and I lost at least 20 more pictures of the Blackpool lorries, and the negs.
I've got a good few more military show pictures from this era though, so I'll post them up.
Cheers
Chris Warr
