Plot Twist, apparently being run by a Dutch company now?  cleverevents.nl  

Do all the felt. That will cure most rattles and its cheap as well as simple. It will require taking the door top apart but if you can operate a rivet gun you will have no issues. I found having a the edge of a big thick washer helps with inserting the felt strips as a screwdriver may damage the felt. YMMV

Found this posted in December last year........https://forum.retro-rides.org/thread/223596/new-age-traveller-transport

Same truck 😞

Last night, a post on the Facebook page 'Post war military vehicle group appeared' from someone who W&P would seem to owe money to. He posted that ticket sales would commence in mid March.

I asked him where this information came from and he replied  "I phoned W@P last week, they informed me that ticketing will be open from mid March, I then looked at the Hop Farm events page to discover that there is no mention of W@P, indeed, there are Hop Farm events advertised for the supposed dates". 

The W&P web page hasn't changed and all the social media links on it are dead.

There has been no advertising that I can see  and according to the post above, they are already being taken to SCC (and losing).. At this stage, what's the point?

RAF Regiment and RAF Police are both tasked with Force Protection and both supply personnel for that role., They have different roles within that. For example,  aircraft that are operated 'overseas' are normally guarded by RAF Police.

I've been told that it was originally for an Austin Champ but i really don't know.

Would be great to have a similar show in the UK.

Or in Europe, say Belgium or south-west of the Netherlands so you can come over to our side of the channel.

I think that we would love to, especially if it catered for more modern (ie Cold War) vehicles. The shows in Europe tend (and I realise that's a generalisation) to focus on WW2 - I'm planning on going to the September Show at Panzermuseum East in Denmark, just to see what a show is like in Europe. 

Wanted!

I am looking for a vehicle mount for the side stalk. I think it started life as Larkspur but carried over to Clansman. I would either like to buy one or maybe borrow one to copy. Picture is an example of what I'm looking for and pinched from the Googles.

I wonder if the real reason is that many people balked at the price rise and attendance was so reduced that it wasn't worth doing? I also wonder where this leaves those who were deferred from 20 and 21? 

So, the plan is to go across the water to The Netherlands, Germany and Denmark in my 1987 military 110. I remember that there was some talk of export paperwork but I have used the search function but can't find anything. What is the current drill regarding going on holiday with the Rover? I fully intended to be gone for a week tops and then drive it back to blighty! 

I think that a big part of the problem is that the management / PR team can't or won't engage with the very people it's relying on. For example, Capel came in for some criticism for banning any German WW2 representations. Instead of hiding and turning off comments, they actively engaged and explained why they had taken the decisions that they had. I don't go to Capel, nor do I reenact but I appreciated the fact that there was an open discussion about it.  I would suggest that W&P could really do with some positive PR at this point, all that's required is to engage and be honest, surely? 

I wonder how many of those 200 are the deferred ones from last year.... 

It's outrageous. (in my opinion)

£125 and £25 for a day pass? 

No. Just no.

That's obscene, particularly against the current climate.

They now have an issue with the booking software, it's all delayed to the 25th.

"Sorry folks, unfortunately the planned launch of our ticketing and booking system which was set to go live today has been pushed back due to a technical issue. Check back on our website from the 25th. warandpeaceshow.com"

doesn't exactly instill confidence. 

No worries, thanks for the update 🙂

Ron, Did you get an indication of the pricing?

The W&P website has been updated: The office will be closed until APRIL!!  The hop farm site still has no mention of W&P either. The complete lack of information is not helpful, especially when leave needs booking for example.

2022's event!

Thanks for that, it looked a bit odd with the other old vehicles having been retrofitted with at least the very basics. The chap in it must have been frozen 🙂 

Over the weekend, I saw a Daimler Dingo being driven, along with other WW2 military vehicles, on the roads near me.  It only had a tiny red light on the rear offside; no brake or indicator lights were fitted. I'm curious as to the legalities of running a vehicle like this on the road, the wisdom of doing so is more obvious.   

As per my post above, they are offering refunds or rolling the tickets over to next year....

The War & Peace office is currently closed and reopens on Monday the 10th of August. To Defer your ticket or claim a refund please Click here - https://forms.gle/x5EgGVQuWQ4ig2E27

Given the circs,  I'll take the cash thanks 🙂
