Enigma Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 About vehicle and mud, getting stuck and being a bit of a idiot. I drive a 2 wheel drive car loaded with gear and such. Guess I may get stuck. Probably amusing or annoying for some but sorry...I can't afford to drive the Dodge all the way to Dunkirk (300KM), pay the ferry and then another 8-100 KM to the show just to avoid bogging down. So if I get stuck, help. Don't mind the rain or mud apart from the previous reason. Surfs up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArtistsRifles Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Give me a call when you get there mate if you think the ground unsuitable for the laden van and I'll come meet you with the Landie and take the load in that for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian Scott Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 I assume you've got to the bottom of the Ward's overheating problems Adrian, what was causing it? Hi Degsy , Well fingers crossed !!! taking it on a test drive tomorrow to see if weve cured the over heating problem , Mike took the head of hoping to find a blown head gasket but it looked fine so replaced it with a new one and refitted the head etc , so Mike has changed the rad that was it for a much bigger one so hoping that will cure the problem !!!

Hope the new rad will cure it, Mike said he was a bit suspicious that could be the problem when we were struggling with the Ward at the road side on the way back from Dorchester.

Peter4456 Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Despite my initial concerns, this has been a really helpful thread (as usual!) Champ and car all packed now ready for an early morning departure tomorrow, arriving, as tradition dictates, via the Oakdene Cafe at the bottom of Wrotham Hill!! Met Office forecast looks reasonable now - apart from tomorrow morning when we will be mostly putting up our 9x9!! Here's to another great W&P!!

Marmite!! Posted July 13, 2012 Author Share Posted July 13, 2012 Next lot of photos shortly but first.. Someone has put a rumour about that I have been posting up that the show is about to be cancelled, anyone who bothers reading this thread will know this couldn't be further from the truth. The only place I have posted a report is here, I DO NOT do Facebook, none of the comments or photos on there are mine. I have spoken to Rex & he does not have a problem with me posting the photos.. The show goes on, the site IS drying out, vehicles are arriving all the time, booking in is running smoothly... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marmite!! Posted July 13, 2012 Author Share Posted July 13, 2012 For those out there who are putting rumours about that the W&P Team are not prepared, think again.. Here's a bit of kit they brought in to drain the worst areas.. it drained the main flooded area by the fair in a very short time... & there's always plan "B" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
