GROYNE CARAVAN SITE
Fine harbour view from around the 50's, some really modern looking caravans there.You would need to be a hardy soul to spend a holiday in a caravan there and yet it used to get crowded.
TROLLEY BUS AT WESTOE
Who remembers the the Warwick Motor School? With the first Triumph Herald with two steering wheels, one for the pupil and one for the instructor. They also had a dual control Lambretta scooter. The rear handlebars on the scooter were only for holding on, they didn't steer of course, but they did have the dual controls.
WHERE DID THEY COME FROM
Here a pair of real oldies, mind she doesn't look too bad does she? She's worn pretty well
OCEAN ROAD IN WINTER
This picture must jog some memories, what about that Austin A35, (the Baby Austin), I remember travelling down from Jarrow late every Saturday night in one of those, there was no heater and your breath used to turn to ice on the inside of the windscreen. How about that Hillman Husky. that's a fine shot of the Economic bus in the background.
