It obviously wasn't what we'd planned for VE Day (Guernsey 75th Liberation Tour), but positive comments from neighbours and passers by helped celebrate the important day.

Who'd have thought they were so common😉 Great to see another one saved. Was it also being used as a livestock field bowser? -

Hi Richard...and here is the Bowser before you collected it from me. Great that we were able to reunite a chassis and bowser....but what we'd like to see is some current photos of progress! -
Recently acquired with some other parts. Two steering boxes I suspect came from British vehicles. Very corroded but may be a source of some useful parts. While the actual box looks identical, the arms are clearly different profiles

Making my first visit on Saturday - if these photos are indicative of the effort put into the show by the organisers...it will be a great day.

I read it today and wondered if I went to the same event as the author. I know the magazine has to make the best of it....but need to retain credibility too

I am considering selling my C60s Wrecker. Owned it for 5 years. Lots of history, new clutch. Lots more photos. Located in Surrey.

Went yesterday. Took no vehicles again this year. No one can control the weather, but many traders packing up by lunchtime. Even the one of the largest living history displays was being dismantled at 2pm. For anyone who has seen the show change, all appeared very "flat". Did enough public pay to see the "spectacle" to keep it going?

Very good. Great to see another Water trailer restored. One of only a handful in the world (that we know of!)
