Unfortunately my transportation arrangements precluded me having a play yesterday, but I hope to make up for it next weekend!

 

See you Saturday morning...

 

Cheers

Not really Rich! I still have to put a new exhaust on the Lightweight, sort the brakes and top up the oils, hoping to get some shed time in the evenings this week! Otherwise I will be spraying the scooby green and black (ex sas y'know ;) ).

Hold on Tim, we can't be providing free beer! :-) Plenty of brews on offer though, better get some more milk and tea bags in the kitbag :-)

Great day onsite today. Suns out, with an excellent hot weather forecast. We have 48 military vehicles & nine Re-enactment groups on site so far. Inc 14 Armoured vehicles, which is a great start, to the show. T34, M24 Chaffee, M36 Jackson tank Destroyer and the Abbot tank will be arriving tomorrow. With the bulk of the Re-enactment Groups. Pics to follow. Roll on Tomorrow

I will be bringing Bernadette along after work on Friday. I want to bring a Zil too but the most available one has developed an air leak and I haven't had the time to fix her. My Old man told the other half that it was potentially dangerous so she will not let me drive on an adopted road until I repair the leak. I like Zelda and think she would be good for the show !!!:mad:
