What a great selection of pictures - have spent a happy 10 minutes scanning through them. A few of the registration numbers of the Minors are readable but none of them seem to appear in the DVLA database.

What a fantastic website, Judge this is something to keep me quiet on a cold winters day thanks.

I must admit as I get older I tend to hanker after things from the past, it may not have been perfect, but it's great to look back on.

Thanks Kate. That was a real treat. Just had a happy ten minutes looking at old pictures with a cup of tea. Perfect.
