Fantastic read very interesting history with its many T.V. appearances all the way through to restoring back to former glory and being at the NEC 2018.
Well done to all those involved past and present brilliant work. Paul

Can’t wait to see OVP again, the last time I saw her was also at Avoncroft whilst looking into her running problem which we managed to solve...
