  1. Me and the boys left london at 4am friday morning and arrived on site about 8am, we had just finished setting up our tent when we were told the show was cancelled=gutted!!!.

    We stayed the weekend though as we had dance tickets for the saturday night.

    The site was completeley waterlogged and the organisers made the right decision.

  2. I'm lucky that I can use my landy everyday if I want to so a show with a road run is not to important to me. I would however participate in a road run if I was asked.

    As for charging MV owners to enter a show, thats a very difficult one to answer.

    I would like to see MV shows getting involved with other groups, such as classic cars/lorry/trucks etc, having them all at a show I feel would make the show a bit more interesting, after all I have seen most types of MV's and something different is always interesting.

    What ever the future of MV shows, I just hope they continue and that we as MV owners support the people who make the effort to put on shows for our benefit.

  3. Dads dad, REME in WW2 attached to the LRDG and given permission to wear the LRDG cap badge on his beret(very very rare!), served in the dessert and came back for d day.

     

    Mums dad, RA, rank of sargent, worked all over england sorting out artillery batterys up and down the country, when you see me ask me about the story of the looters, can't publish on an open forum.

     

    As a by note, both my grandads NEVER attended any remberence day parades and said that they would not fight again if they we ever called up, which looked very likeley for korea.

  4. Me and the boys will be there, going to the dinner dance as well.

    As for WW2 stuff only, well that is up to the organisers.

    However I feel that a MV show is more interesting with all eras of MV's.

    I can understand if they want to put WW2 stuff together in the same field, makes it more realistic.

    But, whoever organises a show, it's thier choice how they run it.

  5. Just persuded my dad to clear his garage out, the stuff we found was amazing!!!, 6 headlights, 2 starters, distributor, 12 tins of paint, shed loads of bolts screws connectors etc etc.

    So far we have binned 2 land rover loads of rubbish!
