The majority of war vehicles stay in the drab colour they were born with, a bit like a caterpillar, I guess my old lady made it through to become a Butterfly
You just get your Canadian Butt over to Beltring Geoff, meet up with Hanno and were sink a few jars
I am afraid the guestlist will be selective

Butterfly indeed...
I have no problem with the drab crowd, in fact I endorse it (that should be obvious
). But I DO respect the new life given to these vehicles in civilian service after the war; would I have taken your truck apart and attempted to turn it into what it was in military service? No. You did the right thing, Simon.
I would be honoured to be hosted by you at Beltring. Perhaps someday this will come to pass.
