Judith Worth and her daughter Susan Northover, from Kingsthorpe, Northampton, raised £56.50 from the wooly wonders.

Other members of the MVT, who restore and display ex-military vehicles ranging from bicycles to tanks, have also been selling poppies at Riverside retail park, Deanshanger and Milton Keynes. The local area of the club meets at Sywell Aerodrome.
