I was in Belgium, and have few nice details for my Tilly,

 

tools box WD 1945, hammer 1943 and air pump "Shefield":cheesy:

Lovely toolbox, I found a nice one like that in one of the lockers full of period tools. My father also said he has a bunch of WD tools as well from his youth so they are being donated

 

Airpump is a nice find too, its these small details that really make it for me

Shame I missed you Tom.

 

The 2 other Tillys were on my campsite and we talked for a long time. Do you have the phone number for the other Tilly owner called Tom? I forgot to ask for it and would like to call him.
