morrisc8gs Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 Yes - will be there. Morris and Tilly! Are you doing the commentary again this year Chris? Forecast is looking better particularly for Sunday. Have always enjoyed Woodvale. West Lancs MVT have worked really hard to beat last years excellent turnout of military vehicles.

Look forward to seeing you Martin, I think my old CS8 is going as well Agreed with the work the west Lancs have put in, I do hope they manage to top last years entry, I know there were issues in previous years but I thought the arrangements last year were very good Hope to see a lot of people there And yes they are letting me loose with the microphone again, you poor unsuspecting people :cool2::cool2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ferrettkitt Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 Good show the road trip around Southport was fun having not been to Southport in years. The missus ended up being tail end charlie at the end of the convoy in the RB44. The only thing that irked me was that I forgot my camera! Has anyone got a pictures that they would like to share? The trips up and down the runway were great as well if the environmental lot had seen it they would have been going apoplectic with all the fumes. The model aeroplanes put up a damn good show on both days. Its a pity that the SR71? made unplanned impact on the runway after the paying punters had gone home.

morrisc8gs Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 Excellent weekend. Good weather, relaxed atmosphere and good crowd on both days. The West Lancs MVT deserve a pat on the back for all their hard work and organisation. Vehicle numbers were up again this year (80 plus?) with a good range of interesting stuff. Great to see Glynn Beresford winning the best British WW2 softskin with his Morris CS8. The road run into Southport on the coast road was invigorating ( well done Mark L.!!) The spin round the runway was a bonus although the Tilly had lost most of her oil by the end. I assume the commentary was excellent Chris - I can't hear anything when driving the Morris!! I did hear the RC airplane commentator describe you as a "lovely man"! (Apologies again for my choice language in your presence when referring to a colleague! - you know who I mean) Look forward to seeing any photos of the event.

Roll on Woodvale 2011 Hi Martin, Glad to hear most people seemed to enjoy the Roadrun, i was a bit worried about it on the lead up as i knew i only had Keith available as Convoy control as not many motorcycles turned up and i wasn't sure how many vehicles would line up, in the end it turns out that there was 21 and Keith did an outstanding job of keeping the convoy together, well done Martin on your award. Also glad to come 2nd place to Glynn's CS8 - very nice set up he had!. Edited August 10, 2010 by WILLYSMB-U.S.N wrong spelling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
