Jack I would suggest very old clothes and take something to change into afterwards or get some overalls and if your worried about your hair maybe a hat. My car seats and floor are still trying to recover after all that mud.
Tunnelrat - we will be up for whatever you and paul want to do.
& the harder one are a bit more of a challenge, we don't mind them :-D
Must put rope on my shopping list...

How many reenactors actually wear medals? I personally haven't seen many..
I've just had a look on the WW2 Reenacting Forum & the general opinion on there is that they do not wear medals, it does seem like it's the German reenactors who are the biggest offenders..
Here's a couple of quotes from a German reenactor..
Note on wearing British medals......It is easy to get Axis reenactors to wear Third Reich awards, but try to get Allied group members to wear British awards, they refuse to do so. Why should that be any different from wearing Third Reich medals? Any "Brits" over 25 years old could be wearing at least one award by 1944, and anyone over forty years old would be wearing First World War ribbons.
On my DCLI uniform I wear the Long Service/Good Conduct ribbon and the Campaign Service Medal ribbon.
Cheers, Bill
So there we have it, rules for some and rules for othersIf you reenact British... thou shall not wear ribbons of any kind.
If you reenact German, wear anything you like, no one will be offended.
Well, that is that one sorted :wink:
Cheers, Bill

Anyone remember this, I went to the landing & the take off :-D
1983 The Space Shuttle “Enterprise†landed at Stansted on the back of a Boeing 747 during a promotional tour of Europe. Around 200,000 people flocked to see it.

Jack,

Yes but you wouldn't get answer from the people who won't join in :roll:
Simple maths can sort that one out :wink::roll:

What no tyre tracks Clive :wink:

Yes but how many actually join in? It seems like only a tiny fraction:-o
sounds like a good idea for a poll.."How often do you visit this Forum"

Just a quick one because I'm knackered :roll: There were 10 of us in total & what a brilliant day & a real eye opener.. hats off to the guys for giving us the FULL tour...photos & a fuller report to follow...
I think richardrosser (The Ferret) is a secret drinker, all we saw him do all day was fall over, thanks for that, great entertainment, must admit we all took a tumble at least once but Richard was at it all day long :rofl: he's also very good friends with rapier rob now :-o :wink: :-) :-)
Rob I would of helped you out but there were to many cameras about :-)
Neil, you didn't miss anything & not meaning to be rude but you wouldn't of got in to a single place we visited...it was a wee bit tight to say the least..
I found a WW2 item in one of the underground magazines dated 1941, I will post of photo tomorrow..
Can't wait for the next one :-D

Makes one wonder if they are doing this on percentages of vehicle owners.
Would have thought however that more than a 1/6th of the MVT membership were PW owners :roll:
Neil will be happy though :roll:

First class article Mr. Elliot well done :-)
