My RL was used by Harry Dinsdale throughout the war years as required transport in his "Reserved Occupation" as a garage owner/mechanic in Colwyn Bay N Wales.. Presumably to keep the local food suppliers transport going. He became my employer when I started my apprenticeship with him, August 1957. The RL was languishing in a shed at the rear of the garage when I started. Eventually given to me April 1961. Best present I have ever had.
