Yes they did. It was good to meet you there and later at my place for a "tyre kicking and manual flipping session".

Hanno, it was great catching up.....even if it was only a week ago Thanks for the hospitality and it was great seeing your F15A in person! Having a look through manuals is always enjoyable.

In my opinion the HUW and Tilly were the nicest vehicles at the show. The HUW has certainly seen better days when it comes to paintwork and service, but I love it, because everything is there....working Northern Electric 19set, original lockers and table, Chore horse.....Dunlop Track grips....etc.
Pity the LAAT and C15A didn't turn up this time. Let's hope the 65th Celebration of the Liberation next year, will encourage some CMP owners in Holland to get there trucks out of their barns.
