    Hi Andy -

     

    I don't think they are sending out entry forms -

     

    You and your vehicle just have to be registered.

     

    Will check tomorrow with Jill.

     

     

    Cheers Mark.

     

    Hope, if thats the case, Mike, postie gets peddling around here, as I'm away to belters during that week.......

     

    Cheers Guys.

     

    See you there.

    When Adrian started this thread I asked the team to keep from posting in it as it got a bit uncomfortable for me last time - wasn't happy with the way Wayne was treated. But hell this thread has made up for it.

     

    Some points made by members who are ex servicemen has got me to question one or two things myself - cracking stuff, lets have more of it!

     

    The problem is that I have more questions then answers now:sweat:

     

     

     

    Surely thats a GOOD Thing, though, Jack..........

    Got to agree with your posting, Jack, on this thread;

     

    The one (main) point that keeps coming across, seems to me, RESPECT.

    Respect for those who, for what ever reason do, or don't want to wear uniform, festoon their vehicle(or themselves :)) with kit.

    Respect for those who used said vehicles in the first place, and (hopfully) encouraging those who are interested to look after we cannot get behind the wheel/tillers, etc.

     

    At the weekend we were invited to a Help For Heroes fundraising event, and the interest shown, by both ex serving and non serving folks made the reason I enjoy this hobby so much, all the more special.

     

    Great to see differing views being expressed in a friendly non judgemental, ADULT way,..................:-D a TRUE measure of the folks who inhabit these pages.......

    Tunbridge Wells - Sun 19th July 2009

    Hi all.

     

    I am attending the Wings, Wheels and Steam Show at Tunbridge Wells on Sunday 19th July 2009 being held at Groombridge Place Gardens, Groombridge.

     

    As it happens, I shall be camped up at Beltring for the 2009 War and Peace by this date so it makes sense to attend this show as it is only up the road so to speak.

     

    I have approached a few HMFV members who I know will be camped in the Hop Farm for the big one so we can convoy to this show. I am planning to convoy from The Hop Farm at 0900hrs.

     

    It is the usual one day local show but should be a good day out (here's hoping for decent weather). The event is being run at two locations with the vehicles and steam engines at Groombridge Place and the Spa Valley Railway operating a steam railway service (just for you Grasshopper) over a five mile stretch between Tunbridge Wells and Eridge.

     

    For those who will not be at Beltring, vehicles have to be in situ for 1100am. The show times are from 1000hrs - 1700hrs.

     

    All vehicles attending the show must register in advance. Entry to the event is FREE of charge to any owner / driver plus two passengers.

     

    To register and obtain an entry form please contact the following:

     

    Jill Todd (Events Manager) - 01622 813888 or 07831 123987 or e-mail jtc001@btinternet.com

    Jack / Joris - Can we have a War and Peace Show 2009 board and this included. Thanks chaps.

     

     

    Has anyone had their entry back for this show, yet. ??
