Grandma P's Ramblings Through Life

Today is the first Sunday in May.
On this day for as long as I can remember, old commercial vehicles drive from London to Brighton. We have always enjoyed the colour and variety of the machines.
This event is less commercialised than The Old Crocks Run on the first Sunday in November when cars that were built in the very early days of motoring drive the 55 miles from Westminster Bridge to Brighton sea front.
This year there was a stopping point for vehicles and their owners in the car park of the football club almost opposite our house.
We had a walk round there getting close up to the pampered trucks, lorries, vans, buses, fire engines etc.
There were lots of people about, enjoying refreshments and a rest. It was hard to take photos without spectators getting into shot - and even when they were not seen directly they might still be visible as reflections in the highly polished paintwork of the vehicles.
Later we went out to the road and saw a fair number pass by.
We returned home with almost 60 picture between us. As ever we are just a bit competitive - wanting to see who has the best shots.
We each chose our favourite 6 for this blog posting. I think they reflect that we are each looking for different things with our cameras - we have different stories to tell.
Bill's 6 come first.
