:) Reminds me of my Dads factory, he had wartime ammunition boxes on the walls as electrical junction boxes... the one welded to the gate as a letter box is still in place! Waste not want not!

silly prose in the Pathe script
 
"Blackpool ... knows how to turn the machines of battle into chariots of gaity."

Nice find Hanno. Does not bear thinking about if it dipped a track into a deep rut whilst in the surf, or soft sand.

MB/GPW in there as well???
 
Hi Hanno.

Just a wee bit farther into that clip, I think there is a civvie MB/GPW going down the road, complete with rear wheel skirts and towing a matching caravan.

Cute!
