Did you manage to avoid tripping over that RL roof section I left in the tent????

I wondered what the hell it was when I first saw it, almost filled it with sand for the kids to play in. Many Thanks for dropping it off Neil.

Hi Roger (118)

Welcome to the forum and don't forget your on door duty at the club house.

I think I might book in as an MV owner and enjoy the show as I missed so much this year.

Happy Birthday Mark

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAVE (118)

Hi,

Well I finally got home Monday at about 08.30pm after packing up my kit and moving my vehicles but it was all worth it.

As for the show what can I say other than a massive THANK YOU to everyone that helped out and attended the show without all off you the show would not have been the success it was. I look forward to seeing you all again next year. Dave(118) and Roger(118) did a fantastic job with traffic control and booking in and we owe them a special thanks for what they did. And just to rub it in thanks for the tea and cake Rambo it was delicious. As Lee said, Kyle you did us a massive favour which will not be forgotten, we owe you. It was great to meet more HMVF members and what a nice bunch they are.

Here's looking forward to next years show and seeing you all again.

Thanks Ian

Hope you are only letting military helicopters in, that Huey would be nice!

Not sure he is arriving in the Huey this year but maybe next year :-D.

Happy Birthday John, where ever you are.

Indeed it is, Ian! I didn't know you were on this board.

Its a good place to be. Be good to see some of your MV show pics posted this year and don't forget your vehicle pics.

Welcome to the forum Puff.

Would this be the same puff from the GDSF forum ?

Tony,

 

I've never heard of later ones having a stronger bonnet, and I've never seen a Wolf on the roads or in a photo with the wheel mounted on the bonnet, even though there is a mount there. The generator pulley isn't the tallest thing under the bonnet, so can't see why that would be a problem? I thought they moved it to the side to aid visibility from the windscreen and make the bonnet lighter to lift when you need to get under there.

 

Chris

I thought it was removed from the bonnet because lifting with the wheel on there was to heavy for female squaddies (Health & Saftey). ????

Hi John, good to see you on the forum. I am sure you will find some Landrover owners at the Bunker Show who will be able to give you loads of information on Landies. Look forward to meeting you.

Have you dried out yet mate?? not much fun being a Fox commander for twenty miles in torrential rain is it... cheers for helping out though :-D

On the bright side it did stop raining as we arrived at the Fort...:coffee:

I think its going to take a week to dry my jacket out. Rain it felt like someone was chucking stones at my face, still nice and warm now.

Next time lets move it when the sun's out :-D

A special mention in dispatches to ian2b for posting picture of my RL on thread for me, and to all who have offered advice on price guides and where to advertise etc. Thank you it has been appreciated.

 

It will be placed in adverts for sale very soon as advised.

 

Once again many thanks to all who have offered their help,

 

Kind Regards

No problems posting the picture and lets hope it sells fast.

This is a picture of Alan (newcomer) Bedford. It looks to be an Ex AFS RL.

Thank Christ the forum is back I almost started talking to the kids just for something to do.

Leaving the HMVF club house (Camp Beckett)

Yeah - fingers now crossed they fit!! :-D

I'm 1.8 m tall and they are labelled 1.76m... :shake:

 

1.8 tall includes your head Neil so without that they should fit very easy with room to spare :whistle: :-D

Can someone send a vehicle form to me please. :coffee2:

 

Sorry for the delay Mark but you just can't get the staff these days. :whistle:
