Yeah thats his name... I think I'll try swing by there later this month
and see what he still has, that is if he has got rid of those dogs of
his.. though its been so long since I was last there they may have died of
old age!

Nah I've been to Chris Wilkinson's.. it was definately somewhere nearer
Newbury. I've been going through my scrapyard photo's and I can remember
Chris's.. he has/had that outbuilding full of ww2 spares. incidentally is
he still in business? I seem to recall something about his yard being
compulsorily purchased.
