    Hi, by car Gosport is about 2.5hrs from Evesham, so at 50 I reckon it would be about 3.5hrs. If you decide to come best way is onto A34 to Oxford, then A44 through Chipping Norton, Moreton-in-Marsh towards Evesham, turn right onto A46 for 1m then right at next roundabout towards Badsey, then 200yds on right turn right into drive with large green sign RB James. cheers Paul

    Looking good for the Chill Out weekend, the Barbecue will be held in the new open ended Nissen so won't be affected by weather with searchlight display for afters. And the Stanton shelter now complete with sound & lighting effects is well worth experiencing.

    Hopefully they will be painted in time for the Chill Out weekend at the end of the month so do please come along if you would like to see them on.

    Just returned from show & took pic of one of the searchlights, both have been prepped ready for painting & fitted with 500w halogen spotlights which have been tested & work a treat. It just so happened that Bob had this Dodge 6x6 lying around so he decided to mount one of them in the back for now.

    Have now had confirmation that the BBMF Dakota will do flypast on the Saturday and possibly a Tigermoth will drop in, other small planes also welcome but no helicopters as Catweazle might be in residence!

    If you are looking for a show near you how about booking into the the Victory Show at Cosby, 6 & 7 September, predominantly ww2 but also a growing post war field. http://www.victoryshow.co.uk

    Please can morris C8 fat post a clearer pic of the searchlight trailer as would like to know if its the same as one I have just located, thanks Paul

    Thanks I'm hoping its a searchlight trailer but then is it for the 90cm or the 150cm? We currently have two 90cm's at Evesham one is about to be mounted onto a six wheel Dodge that Bob just happened to have lying around & would be good if we could buy this one to mount the other. I'll try Keith, thanks.

    Please can someone let me know what this trailer would have been used for. Sorry some details are hidden by brambles, but circular hole in middle & steers from the front. Was is for a gun, searchlight or generator. Found on an airfield in Warwickshire. Thanks Paul

    Shame they have only recently announced this as its only 2 miles from me & I'm already committed to the Chill Out weekend at Bob James's near Evesham. Hardly any advertising for the festival locally so will be interesting to see how it goes. Perhaps someone could post some pics after the event.

    Getting hard to see that there is a shelter there now. A few more finishing touches with baskets to stop soil slipping, metal door to entrance, metal hatch & looking greener just in time for show on Aug 8-10.

    no engines in that one at Coventry. I hope the XH558 is able to fly but do wonder as to how long they will be able to afford the running costs. Their Chief Exec posted on 23rd June hoping to attend Waddington: http://www.tvoc.co.uk/
