Am I right in saying that Campbell's designer ( Ken Norris ) was based in Haywards Heath.?


Not sure about that i could probably find out as my Grandfather was well connected and he may have spoken to my father about norris.

My grandfather pictured here sitting on the K4 with Donald.

Great watch, absolute legend

He certainly was, as were quite a few of the groundbreaking record breakers my grandfather being one:smile:

My grandfather liked Donald Campbell, John Cobb and was like a brother to the great Capt George Eyston pictured below.

He thought Malcolm Campbell was up himself he really wasn't liked very much,Donald though was a top man.
