My blogs

Location	Dorset, United Kingdom
Introduction	I believe in the free exchange of manuals - to help keep old vehicles out of the scrap yards. You are welcome to download the files offered on my websites. I would hope that you would offer any files that you have or know of in this free exchange. .
Interests	In 2013, some 30 years after last driving Alvis Stalwarts and Bedford trucks in HM Forces, I joined the HMLC group on Facebook. We made a few efforts to gather maintenance files for the Stalwarts, but it was a struggle to find free files to help others. In 2020 we had the Covid Lockdown. To occupy my time and keep me sane, I started in earnest to source and gather as many maintenance and user files as I possible could, to help keep the remaining stalwarts out of the scrap yards. All of these EMERs and ACNs were declassified by MOD over a period of time. The next logical step was to offer these files to Stalwart owners across the globe, including to those who do not use Facebook. A free Google website was set up, but without the expense of buying a domain name. Blogger page names appear to come up in web searches more easily that Sites website do without dedicated domain names. So in 2023, these dedicated blogs have been set up to help people find the Stalwart and Bedford files. .
