make yourself known I am the one with very few teeth

did not make it this year as it klashed with the Bristal show hope to make it next year depending on the date & the i will only need to travel from Neath unlike other years from Huddersfield, West Yorkshire

simplexes were not painted green the same go's for WW1 tanks there were painted light brown but were oiled on the front line (the oil was vegetable oil or olive oil ) so over time the oil gave the brown a green tint

Tomorrow i will be starting to fit out the new office ready for the move in july
