WOW sounds fantastic!!

Oh It was

It was good to meet you two.

Great write up Bernie, far bettert job than I could have done,have to agree that the museum in Dikirch was awesome, possibly the best ever up to date, so much gear and well looked after.

So you going next year?

We went from Hull overnight sailing to Zebrugge, its only a 3 hour drive to Bastogne from there so we had it cushy by the sound of it.

We also" witnessed "a little incident on the way back, involving a trailer and an unsuspecting VW ,whos bumper was(!) minding its own business in the services!!! :shock: :oops:

Hope your daughter recovers, why do they always do it at holiday time?

I have trouble deciding which keys to press normally but if I'm under pressure anything can happen.

Bernies your man for a report Jack, I'm sure she will do a far superior job. (Obviously she isn't a real man though)

To sum up the trip, We went, we saw, we had fun.

But you two obviously want more than that don't you.

Just a picture or two from Bastogne at the weekend to give a taste of the goings on, I'll leave the written report to Bernie.

Watch out you northern jeep owners who show em, this is one VERY pretty jeep!!

Hi John

These things do creep up on you , I have seen(and financialy suffered) from the ban on pistols, rifles and the impending ban on replica/deact weapons up next.

You never know in the future what perfectly law abiding pastime will be outlawed to please the minorities!!

£540!!!!!! :oops:

You'll need the thermals Berni!!

Drop me a line with a list of insignia you are after, I have an enormous box of it, may be some in there.

See you and Russ in a week or so.

You must have seen plenty of evidence as to what tankers wear on Saturday night Steve.

Hope you got home OK.

Hi Paul, my sympathies, been there as well.

I agree with Jack,best to look at it as an oportunity, which is easy for us all to say

Good luck in your search

You supply them with about 12 photos and the valuation you think and they have someone look at it at their end to make sure.

I know the system works as they took my valuation as gospel when I rolled it and they had it to repair!!

I have a tiger stripe Jacket "liberated" from Full Metal Jacket

Hi Lloyd

Barry Grainger insure mine and they do the valuation in the costs of the premium.

They were most helpfull when I rolled it as well

I will be back to them in Feb for my renewal.

Hi DD

I bought a pair of the £50 pattern ones 18 months ago from a German dealer, they are great, a bit glaring to start with but once they are dubbined and polished down they look good and feel super on, and are more waterproof than my corcorans that a few years ago were 3 times the cost.They also look good with the tops chopped off!

I wouldn't hesitate in investing in another pair

Its well worth a trip to Wetherby on the first wednesday of the month, we have a meeting at the Sports Centre from about 7.30, very informal but well organised if that makes sense.

There is a good calendar of events , I'll post some on here when we get our list next month.

Hey Steve, don't you go poaching folk off up to your neck of the woods :lol:

Why are you being a general??

There are road runs with strategically placed food/drink/brazier/wee stops.

Evening get togethers and a dance as well.

Optional frostbite for the incorrectly dressed as well.

A good weekend

Hi Steve,It was an accessory on the truck, he used to have a canvas bucket but you know what they say about them :wink:

Fuji F401 its fantastic, compact ,good battery life,optical and digi zoom, does video and all manner of other things.

Down side is that for some reason Fuji decided not to make it beer proof, seems to be gumming up the on/off switch

Had it over 2 years now so if its not repairable I will get the new model to this without a doubt.

Thats why you should come North Jack, we always have a good time up here.

As its things on trucks, here is another rich mans toy in transit at Bastogne last year

Hi Bernie, rather than post these on our PM, thought I would post them here so everyone can see what they'll be missing whilst your lot and ours are playing in Belgium.

These are from last years Belgium trip, proper snow and -10 degrees :shock:

See you there

The word chaos springs to mind :evil:

70 miles at 7/8ths of a mile per gallon!!! X 2vehicles

Dropping the toys off for Pickering wartime weekend.

Karoshi, note the bucket

Hey I know someone called Mark Baldry as well!!!!

Its a real coincidence , he also lives in loads of places at once!!

Hi Mark

Hi Steve, speak to Jimmy, his local garage is MV friendly!!!

And cheap as well, £25.oo for a test

A lad I was at school with went on to do postal MOTs, which were very handy.

Trouble is the ministry were not all that happy about him doing them for some reason

Anyone on here going to Belgium next month on the trip as guests of the BMVT?

It would be nteresting to meet up with anyone if you are going across.
