fesm_ndt Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 Ok as it's getting close to being a month away, who and what are going? It appears that my work will have me in the UK at the right time :-D and I am rather stoked as missed it too many times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArtistsRifles Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 Will be there alternating between Kitcheners and Living History fields. :cheesy: Series Landy likely will be on the EMLRA plot again as requested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
russell sprout Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 If anyone have a low loader going down then I'd be very interested in chipping in for an empty back load after drop off. Need to move a truck from Eastbourne to Lincoln. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MHillyard Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 Will hopefully be down for a week or so with the BSA if I can get the parts needed in time. Also potential work may get in the way.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spanter Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 We'll be down with the jeep, WC54, parabike and halftrack, looking forward to watching you tear around the arena again Rick, but this time I'll be enjoying it from outside the arena rather than having you charge up out of the dust behind me after the prize giving, the cromwell is fantastic and sounds lurvly with a few revs. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g0ozs Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 I've booked 17th and 18th July off work - will choose which day I come to W&P based on the weather forecast nearer the event as it is a 3h trip each way. Iain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

antar Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 i'll be there with the Cromwell converting pound notes into heat and noise Rick is the Cromwell coming back to Manchester after W & P ? Melvyn is having his show over the weekend of 2nd & 3rd August at Heywood, now we have 100 acre playground ! We are taking a few more modern pieces of tracked armour CET, SAURER APC, STORMER, and possibly the M578, Melvyn will of course have their Centurion and 2 Chieftains out as well as a few other pieces of tracked armour, this show has the potential of being the Beltring of the North.

fesm_ndt Posted June 19, 2014 Author Share Posted June 19, 2014 (edited) What accommodation is close by? I keep forgetting taxis in the UK are prohibitive as figuring on going on the 16th and then flying out of Heathrow on the 17th. So my main drama will be getting from wherever I stay to the airport.

sirhc Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 You can catch a train straight into London from the show site, then it's pretty easy to get to the airport. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Farrant Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Mike, If you catch one of the High Speed trains that will stop at Westenhanger at certain times, it get you to St Pancras in around 45 mins, from there you get an Underground train straight through to Heathrow terminals, could not be easier. If there is not a High Speed stopping at Westenhanger when you wish to go, just get a local train to Ashford International and catch one there. This is how I get to Heathrow.
