  1. Hi All

     

    Just got back from MM show after clearing up, I and the Team would like to thank everyone who turned up for what was a great weekend, thanks to Lee for the brilliant photo's and many congratulations to all the winners this year (we do not do the judging ).

    Highlight this year for me was seeing the flypast of the BBMF Hurricane (Spitfire was cancelled ??) although short it was very emotional and superb to hear it again.

     

    Once again thank you to everyone who made the show what it was.

  2. Well this all sounds good, apologies for being a bit quiet on here lately but things have been a bit hectic to say the least.

    Things are now shaping up at MM and we are all looking forward to seeing you all there again this year and the new visitors, it looks like the show will out do itself with over 250 MV's booked in and 60+ traders etc etc etc.

     

    I hope you will all enjoy yourselves and keep your heads down when the Spitfire comes across.

     

    p.s. The trophies have the correct spelling this year :coffee:

  3. From what I've been told by his staff he no longer holds the purse string in respect of onsite facilities... they are all down to PB I believe.

     

    I accept and agree with your statement, BUT Rex must have a say, unless of course nothing is said to keeps costs down who knows???, but there is a law somewhere that dictates how mnay WC's must be provide per head (excuse the pun) of visitors etc otherwise the law is being broken.

  4. The Hop Farm is now incharge of onsite facilties...

     

    I agree, but as Rex is in charge of the show he MUST have an input to the facilities being organised, he will know more than HF who and how many 'ish will be turning up etc' so therefore some of the planning must be down to WP.

  5. Lots of valid points made, it would seem to me that the "tent thing" is a problem well what ever you do it is always going to upset someone, personally if you leave it up to the exhibitors to do what they want then it goes some way to pleasing all. Even if you say U.S. vehicles here and British vehicles there you will still get people who have both so if you go with the flow and let people exhibit how the want to.

     

    Don't forget the show is for the exhibitors as well as the public...

     

    The most important things of all are to make everyone welcome, make everyone feel safe, if this is achieved they will enjoy themselves.

     

    Site rules:

    try to limit rules but the ones which are laid down MUST BE ENFORCED.

    The most important ones are Site speed limit, No under-age people using motor/quad bikes or vehicles ( driving license ) at any time, No sirens or blue lights to be used outside of the arena displays only authorised emergency vehicles to be allowed to ues them.

    Curfew at night for vehicle movements and noise ( music ) To be enforced or banned from site.

     

    HELP POINTS or HELP PHONE NUMBERS.......

    To be supplied to everyone who signs in to exhibit.

    This will be manned 24 hrs a day for emergencies of any nature and to be acted on immediately.

     

    You have nigh on described Military Mayhem, friendly, limited rules , NO QUADS etc etc etc.
