BIGREDONE Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 (edited) Bit late I know, but if you are down this way. New show on the scene so not sure how good it will be, all I can say is that I think it is very expensive for MoPs to get in...... http://www.explosion.org.uk/visitor-info/events-calendar/icalrepeat.detail/2011/04/02/47/54|53/NWE0Nzk5NmU0OTZhODVjYTg0ZWUzYTRiNGZjOWMyNzQ=/spirit-of-the-40s-weekend.html CheersPaul Edited April 1, 2011 by BIGREDONE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BIGREDONE Posted April 3, 2011 Author Share Posted April 3, 2011 well,an interesting day.A cracking venue with very enthusiastic staff.This was their first event and they are planning another next year.It certainly has the potential to be a nice day out. I attended Sat only and yes a great little first show. Very good set pieces and very loud pyro's. I would have liked to see more vehicles there (9) but I guess petrol etc and the MoPs seem to drop away in the afternoon, I think there were more Reenactors than MoPS for most of the day. Didnt see the NAAFI wagon as advertise, was it there today? Anyway roll on next year and perhaps they could get the local MTBs up in the camber area. All along there was a staging area for D-Day and I have a shot of many German prisoners being marched along one of the road off of the museum. Were you with the Dorset guys?

ColinR Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 Nice little event. I went both days and enjoyed it. This can definately build into a nice little event and i'm sure more MoPs will attend next year as word spreads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
