I am really sorry, but I do not have a picture of Mr. Lockley's Bradford van, I had not heard of the book Travels with a tent in western Europe before, does anybody know how much the Bradford is referred to in the book, it could make a nice article for The Jowetteer!

Great to see a picture of a Jupiter in the programme!
