I thought it was about time that I put the history of Lulu, as much as I know that is, with costs and owners and anything else that I can throw in.
Right she started life at a motor dealer named Western Motor Caravan Company which appeared to change homes from Bournemouth to Bath, before we go any further why do southerners pronounce it Baaath?
She was bought by a Mr. Rosemond and here is a complete breakdown of payments.
