YK55 Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 Another new member here 8-) I'm new to the 'hobby' although I used to buy ex-MOD Land Rovers from Ruddington in the early 1980s but I always wanted something bigger :evil: At that time there were Mighty Antars and Leyland Hippos and suchlike still at auction but they were way out of my league then. Austin K9s and Bedford RLs were plentiful (and cheap) but even then I didn't fancy the petrol bills Last year I got myself a Bedford MJ and Arrows trailer and I love it! I always liked the look of the MK/MJ, to me it's one of those things that just looks 'right'. Anyways, here's a picture....... Andy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snapper Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 Nice motor, Welcome aboard. According to the moderator's diary, it's your turn to buy the Jaffa cakes. Someone else will make the tea.....A comfy armchair has been saved for you in the members lounge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YK55 Posted May 30, 2007 Author Share Posted May 30, 2007 Thanks for the welcome chaps :wave: Jaffa cakes yum yum Trying to convince the girlfriend it's a good idea to go to War and Peace in the MJ, 600 mile round trip though and she don't do camping. If we get there I'll bring tea and Jaffas :tup: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyle Good point Kyle - they have finished with G506 so here they are.......and there is no truth to the rumour that the dancing girls are actually some of the HMVF mods as Beltring last year!

G506 Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 Thanks for the welcome chaps :wave: Jaffa cakes yum yum Trying to convince the girlfriend it's a good idea to go to War and Peace in the MJ, 600 mile round trip though and she don't do camping. If we get there I'll bring tea and Jaffas :tup: Hi Andy, like the Bedford! Mrs G506 sometimes needs persuading when it comes to long road trips or long shows (more than 3 days), all i do is promise that on arrival i will stick a glass of wine in her hand, and that throughout the event wine (or Jack Daniels) will be plentiful. Its a pretty good arrangement! :-D G506 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Hardyferret Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 all i do is promise that on arrival i will stick a glass of wine in her hand, and that throughout the event wine (or Jack Daniels) will be plentiful. Its a pretty good arrangement! :clap: Now this man has the right idea :clap: :coffee: Note to self - ensure that HardyFerret reads this thread. His cheapskate offer of a cup of tea just does not have the same appeal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rosie Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 :clap: Now this man has the right idea :clap: :coffee: Note to self - ensure that HardyFerret reads this thread. His cheapskate offer of a cup of tea just does not have the same appeal thats one of the reasons I go to MV shows, r cubed promises me copious amounts of wine (ask R. Notton as I was spotted drinking wine by the pint at Overlord :-D) I think we should have a Ladies area when at shows with wine, wine, JD, wine, brandy,wine, chocolate and wine!
