Yo Trooper, great photos mate, now thats a Blast from the Past. The Tank Museum used to be in the middle of the Junior Leaders Regiment camp in the 1960s, they have moved now. Here is an old photo of me (on left) and a friend Jeff Strong outside the Museum as young 16 years olds, behind is a WW1 Tank which tey used to keep outside, think they are all indoors these days. Just think I was priveledge to get in every Tank in the Museum they had up to 1960, They used to have the German Tanks lined up opposite the British & American Tanks, and I used to think how the hell did we beat them, the German Armour looks awesome. Happy Days

Yo Dave, nice to hear from you mate, did get your new email thanks, but been having real problems with the PC. Had to go for repair twice, but its OK now fingers crossed. Whats going down in Germany mate. I really enjoyed my time over there got on very well with the Germans, you must try their Brockferster (Brad or Konrad will give you the right spelling lol) sausage from one of the mobile stands if they are still going, with plenty of onions they were the only thing that replaced the Fish & Chips after a few beers.
