notting hill carnival riots, mr google tells me, were 18 years after that photo. please remove mr kendall's points

err, tom, you've left the rig's name badge in the 2nd pic, makes it quite easy

I'm gonna guess at 1994 for the year

I'm going to Give you the points for Piper Alpha (You spotted it, I didn't) But the year is wrong.

What? WHAT?

It SAYS "Piper Alpha" on the picture! And Pony-Tail Boy gets points for THAT?

Whereas I cunningly spotted a man in red, & woirked out who he was.

I reckon it's the Notting Hill "race-riots" in the 1960's.

Thank you. I now have work to do, elsewhere, so I will retire from the Competition forthwith, with an unassaible lead.

Send prize, please.

No - that model of Ice-Cream Van was not available in the 60's.

I have a book about the history of Ice-Cream Vans.

1988 for Piper Alpha.

Not convinced that photo was taken on Piper Alpha at that time though, need to research a bit but am sure the whole rig would be a charred mess by the time Adair and his team got there, not as bright and shiny as it looks there.

Geo

Scrap that, just realised he's actually on a vessel fighting the fire

Wrong on both counts.

EDIT: You're probably right about your street party.
