  1. I have been playing around with the pictures and I think the sign possibly says "Cambridgeshire graneries co."

    An internet check seems to show it was near Madingley where the American war cemetery is now.

    I may be all wrong of course ! So don't let me lead you in the wrong direction

  2. Hi everyone,

     

    we have an ST200 class fast launch that we know was requisitioned first by the RASC and then transferred to RAF Castle Archdale in Northern Ireland. It was one of the boats that D.H.Lawrence did sea trials in.

    its main duties in the RAF was to keep the landing area clear of floating debris to keep the flying boats from Damage.

    Anyway, we would love to see any pictures anybody has of her in service , but we cannot be sure of the "ST " number it was given.

    She was built as "Kathleen" originally.

    I know it's a long shot, but we all are often desperate for the history of our loved possessions an I'm no exception!

  3. Hi Locolines

     

    Just what I need to tow behind my Canadioan F30 Laat tractor, and I am going on the XXX trip !

     

    Will you have it at war & peace?

    I am afraid our daughter has been most inconsiderate, and is getting married that weekend, so I will be only going on the first day in our car. However, I would like it to go on the trip. I have to get new tyres and some spare wheel bearings first, but I don't see any reason why it wouldn't be ready.

    i just managed to get an original cover for it yesterday for £8.00 !
