Re: John Drewery Truck

Thanks for taking the time to answer Craig I knew it was a Morris, i meant has anyone actually seen or know of this actual truck. I believe it was last seen around the Manningtree Essex area at the turn of the century I was owned by my recently deceased Father-in-law before that, he used it for cart...

A retirement home by the sea

Headed down to the Suffolk coastal town of Aldeburgh today, and found these Beauties living out their retirement by the sea
