The A-Team in Hale Barns

Seeing two of The A-Team's vehicles at Robs Car Fest in Hale Barns.

Face parks however he likes!

It was brilliant to see The A-Team van and Face's Chevrolet Corvette at the charity event held at The Bulls Head pub in Hale Barns near Altrincham, Greater Manchester.

I love it when a plan comes together

Robs Car Fest was due to be held at the Hale Barns Carnival, however that event was cancelled due to weather conditions. Luckily the pub was able to host the car show in aid of Macmillan Cancer Support.

We've seen a few Ghostbusters vehicles on our travels, including Ecto-1a in Urmston, a Ghostbusters car in Scarborough, and Ecto-1 at The Light cinema in Stockport and at the Totally Stockport Comic Con.

The A-Team van in Worthing

It was absolutely amazing to see The A-Team van while out on a stroll on Worthing seafront at the weekend.

I spotted it cruising down the seafront (see the last pic) and actually managed to track it down better than Colonel Decker ever could.

Totally Stockport Comic Con

80s TV, film and pop culture heaven!

We had a marvellous morning at the Totally Stockport FREE Comic Con. What a brilliant event. So much to see and do.

The Totally Stockport Comic Con

The event was organised by Totally Stockport.

There have been some superb events here in Stockport. The last Comic Con was excellent too. The event was set to become an annual attraction, but the coronavirus put paid to the follow-up event in May 2020.

K.I.T.T. at theTotally Stockport Comic Con
I've wanted to see K.I.T.T. in real life since I was a little kid. This was amazing!

We're so glad the event went ahead and are looking forward to the next Stockport Comic Con already!

Only Cars and Commercials

We spotted this amazing van on our daily walk in Cheadle on Saturday!


Cheadle Car Sales Only Fools and Horses van

I'd literally just said to Emily that I hadn't seen anything fun to photograph recently as we've been locked down in the borough.

Cheadle Car Sales Only Fools and Horses van

Only Fools and Horses is a pop culture icon that has been ripe for bootlegging and parodies over the years.

It's crazy how many Reliant Regal Supervans we've seen on our minigolf travels.

Elsewhere in Stockport you can see a hearse from a business called Shed's Household Independent Traders.

Shawfield Line Marking Specialists Ltd. is another business that operates in Stockport and some less exotic locations like London, Paris and New York.

If you're in Blackpool you can visit Lester's Independent Trading Co.

Spotting an 'A-Team van' in Stockport.

I always keep an eye out for fun and interesting stuff and managed to get a snap of this 'A-Team van' out on a mission somewhere in the Greater Manchester underground earlier today!

It's not the first A-Team van I've seen on my travels. Check out the Multi Kitchens Ltd van, The Waste Team and The Natural Tile Company in Belfast.

The Simpsons art on an ice cream van

We spotted an interestingly decorated ice cream van in Cheadle on Friday.

It's always fun seeing The Simpsons in unexpected places

It's not the first time we've seen The Simpsons on an ice cream van - we saw this one in Leeds and another in Cheadle Heath.
