Netherlands 1985
I have fond memories of participating with the MVCG on their Hook of Holland tour in May 1985, travelling with John Marchant in his HUW. The crowds were huge and besides interacting with the public I got to meet people who had been liberated by the Canadians. It was a very emotional time as I wore BD and some of them would start crying when they saw me. Back then I didn't mind camping and eating army rations, now I have ditched wearing the BD and prefer hotels and restaurants.
