ChrisPWRR Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 Never been to war and peace so surprised when I saw this WEAPONS Only vehicle mounted weapons or those, as part of a static display will be allowed on site. These must remain secure at all times and must comply with current H. M. Govt. regulations. No weapons are to be carried around on the site. NO BLANK ROUNDS or PYROTECHNICS may be brought on site unless pre-arranged with the organiser. In the light of public opinion the organisers must insist that ALL WEAPONS brought onto the site for display or sale must comply with CURRENT U.K. legislation. Anyone found to be disregarding this request will not be re-invited to attend. Please ensure that you follow this request to assist in keeping the reputation of War & Peace as being a “Family Show”. Thank you. No BB guns or air rifles to be used on site. Used to overlord, Paul do we have permisson for blanks for our brownings? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rlangham Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 Was having a last wander around early Sunday afternoon (shame the majority of vehicles had already left by then), was this the Pig with the screens and white paint over it? Looked very good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArtistsRifles Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 Looked even more impressive when it was laying down it's own smoke screen - before Paul fixed the leaking hydrovac!!!! :evil: :evil: :evil: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul connor Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 Thats my Pig! Now called "helen the humber" after my first girlfriend, as she was about as reliable and always causing pain and hassle! hehe Next year we have huge plans for the Living History side! Any one have any pics of my pig? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snapper Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 Paul - I am very peed off I missed a rendezvous with you, given we had talked about it. Maybe we can get a proper photoshoot together like we intended. I am really sorry not to have covered your displays..it was one I was looking forward to. I can't work out how I was on site for five days and still missed things I planned to do. The mud is a bit to blame as is the fact I didn't have an All Areas pass for my Iltis which led to a frank encounter with some of the Barmy Army diligently manning the bridge. There were not enough passes to go round and I was not prepared to risk travelling around to do stuff if I could not go where I wanted with ease. It is another little bit of organisational stuff that will hopefully be ironed out next time. They want me back again, so I must have been doing something right.

PeterMacD Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 if you are re-enacting the Troubles why would you dig in? Static targets were easy prey for the Provos - even in the sticks you kept mobile Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snapper Posted July 7, 2008 Share Posted July 7, 2008 I will come and find you lads very early on to sort out a proper snapping session to take place when you're all ready. I've got a fifteen year old who is very keen to see what you're doing. I'm hoping to stay on line throughout the show if I can get access at the Hop Farm, so I can keep in touch with everyone right until you travel. I'm going Sunday morning and although I've got no MV this year - I'm planning to do a lot. So keep me in the loop to get snaps of your efforts on the event site and for future use on here and elsewhere. MB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chambers101 Posted July 7, 2008 Share Posted July 7, 2008 Just an idea for you. You could put a line of fire in front of the pig to make it look good for the cameras. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArtistsRifles Posted July 7, 2008 Share Posted July 7, 2008 Or we could lob petrol bombs at the Pig for that extra-reallistic look!! (Ducking and running for cover fast.....) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redcap Posted July 7, 2008 Share Posted July 7, 2008 For that "just used" look, you could do worse than this :evil: (Results of a range day at Warminster when we let go all our old 66mm LAAWs before taking delivery of the new 94mm LAAWs) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snapper Posted July 7, 2008 Share Posted July 7, 2008 Does lobbing petrol bombs at pigs constitute a hog roast? Dinner AND a show! I'll buy that for a dollar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
