This is a mixed bag, full of stories. Firstly, some old aircraft, then a visit to a ship, Solen, that looks as though it needed some repairs to its hull. A few shots of old commercial vehicles follow, from the 1964 HCVS London-Brighton Run, then a visit to Beaulieu Motor Museum, the house in Sundridge (probably before we moved in), Dad’s Vauxhall at home, and finally some friends doing a christening in Maldon, Essex.
