Guess what I bought today?!

Today my grandson and I went on a trip to meet up with Adam (Ad Lav) and his son. We met at a secret location, and he made me follow him to an even more secret location. There is no way I'm driving down winding country lanes blind fold again.

Adam had taken us to meet his friend who owns a Sherman M4A1E8 76, and I can confirm, Adam really does have a friend ;)

We had a great time, we got to see the Sherman, a couple of trucks and half tracks. But the best bit was visiting the souvenir shop, we spied a couple of souvenirs we really liked, but oh dear, which one to have, oh well, let's have both :D

And now my lad has a couple of souvenirs of his day.
Thank you very much Adam, we had a great time.

Oh dear, don't give up your day job Rob. . . . Toys? More like ornaments ;)

I sent my daughter the picture. She asked me where they're going, I replied with, how would I know, it's your house and you said your lad could have one lol.
Note she said he could have one lol.
