The show ground is now all laid out , we have 20 plus stalls coming , tank rides large and small. I nice large arena ( the Ferret was in top going around it) . Moved loads more vehicles over , it was great fun driving the James Bond T55 trough the Norfolk country side across fields and old runways . The 2S1 drove really well . -

The information supplied the to us says the A11 north bound will be open all weekend . But there are plenty of other routes in and out of Norfolk , a good route is to get on the Bury st Edmunds to Thetford road , that is actually a better route for old MVs . -

Thanks for the comments , looking like the weather is going to be great for the show ! currently being put through the workshop is our 105 light gun and the Tracked rapier. It's looking very possible the rapier will be up and running in a very short time , the engine is cranking and we have found the gearbox oil pipe that is leaking . -

The quad ,limber and 25pdr have been painted in Sicily campaign colours . Just the markings to apply . The 25pdr is operational again, so we will probably be making so loud bangs with at Military Revival, they are a nice size piece of kit . Well done team ! -

Next up 1938 Morris Quad, limber and 1940 25 Pdr . All washed , repaired and running . Now for a fresh coat of paint. This is just one of our 25pdrs we have. One of the others will be maned and demonstrated by our resident former Artillery officer now 84 years of age) At the show . He has made some brilliant training aids to demonstrate the operation and sighting of a field gun - an amazing chap and well worth meeting if you have the slightest interest in field artillery . -

We are getting some of the captured kit ready next week Stinky ! We have just finished the Bedford MK. We appear to have a bit of a last minute rush on booking in ( that's not a problem by any means as it is a large site and we have a reserve field ). -
Enigma we are an active airfield ! Do you have a plane or a friend with one ? You could fly in ! That goes for any visitors , the airfield will be open to fly ins .

That's another vehicle ready for the arena display . Now to prep the Bedford . Starting the heavy armour up next week . The arena programme is now planned , with many opportunities for collectors to display their pride and joys off to the full, plus some heavy armour shaking the ground . -
There is now another chance to see Ricks Award winning Cromwell - he will be displaying it at the Military Revival at Old Buckenham Airfield Norfolk on the 5/6 th Oct. Thanks mate !!
