What more welcoming sight could one
behold while trudging around a hot
showground than this NAAFI tea wagon.
It’s a South African built Ford 11T dating
from 1941 and owner Nigel Watson is
doing the honours. The body, says Nigel,
went on this year and was based on
archive photographs. The only question
that remains is, one sugar or two?
TIME FOR TEA!
