After the disappointment of the Llangollen Balloon Festival visited the Hooton Park Trust near to the Vauxahll Factory where they were having an open day- first visit even though it is on my door step and made nine.

There were other component parts in a container which some of the guys said would be viewable to see at the end of each month (Last Sunday) But was not possible today.
The Luton Minor was looking in good nick especially the condition I saw it when it was stored at Barton a number of years ago.
Also was worth the visit just to travel on the old Birkenhead Transport bus which took me back to my youth.
Happy Days
