I think he was one of the military disposal agents back in the day before the sole contract went to Withams

I spoke to him about 2 years ago and he wanted a grand for one LOL in other words he dosnt want to sell them he was a very weird fella they are located in Bedford and the tree has grown through some of them and some of them are in the tree trunk as well

Real shame when you see your pic of them in active service
