It seems even now this is true, the number still around and coming to light. I didnt realise when I was kid going on Holiday in the Glenelg that years later I would be so involved with them. They are everywhere when you start looking around, surprising really

Not too hard to believe that there are survivors and I wish I had all of them on the Owners list, one lives in hope!
Knowing just how well they were constructed and that each one was hand built it does not really surprise me a great deal when I see one still on the road or sitting in a field, just wish we could afford to go into a regeneration program with them all, that would certainly be something to add to the Thomson legacy!
Put up a list of all the brochures I have acquired so far, lots of scanning to do to get them on the site once I can get a decent scanner that runs on Windows 7, afraid the one I have which is great does not have an upgrade to 64bit Windows 7 so will have to save up for another one. I do have a three in one but the quality on scans is not as good, passable but those that know me know I prefer the best I can do!
They truly are a world wide caravan and some great examples are in use around the globe! (-;

We need to find an Eccentric Billionaire and get him to pay for the restoration of any Thomsons we find ;D
