rambo1969 Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 Me and the boy's will be there. Looking foward to the skittle's championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yogi Posted August 10, 2007 Author Share Posted August 10, 2007 Good to have you all on board. We are making good progress with the MOD and every thing is looking good for the campsite. We have requested the woods opposite so some of you can park in there and keep the car par for the low loaders. next year we are trying to get a few hours booked on the DTA so you can have a go at deep water driving. This will all depend on cost. This week end is your week end and any suggestions you put forward will be arranged (hopfully). Also we are thinking on the lines of a trophy/s for the longest distance travelled, best turned out vehicle, first to break down and last but not least SKITTLES. This will be for fun and not to be taken to hart if you don't win :cry: All judging will be done by local REG members if we can find some. This is just an out line for next year, If half of these things don't happen see Jack :whistle: I will keep all informed as I find out more. We should have a answer on the camp site by October. All we ask is you come along and have a good time on the SPTA. Tony and the team at Plain Military. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArtistsRifles Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 Would that be longest distance period or split between arriving under ones own power or via low-loader Tony??? :whistle: :whistle: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yogi Posted August 10, 2007 Author Share Posted August 10, 2007 Now thats a good point. It really should be under there own steam but some of you guys will be low loadering your vehicles. :dunno: OK scrap that one for know I will have to re-think this one.

yogi Posted August 11, 2007 Author Share Posted August 11, 2007 Yes you can, will have to put it in the pub car park though. That way we can run leccie to you if need be. The car park is only 20 to 30 feet from the camp site. I have been told its going to be a fall moon so might get to see the drummer boy this time. :whistle: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yogi Posted August 13, 2007 Author Share Posted August 13, 2007 we have been in touch with the MOD and have put a request for the wooded area. This will give us plenty of room to camp and park. Anyone brave enough can camp in the woods with the big cat the Drummed boy and those crows crapping all over your tent.

yogi Posted August 19, 2007 Author Share Posted August 19, 2007 Just got back from the Bustard Inn and Roy is over the moon that you all want to come back. He has donated a trophy for use and the new skittle ally looks great. It looks as if the trophy will be the best turned out vehicle and the judges will be Roy, Craig, myself and one more. This is just for fun. Another trophy will be done for the skittles. We are scraping the distance trophy cos not every one will be driving to the campsite. Is there anything we may have missed IE danceing girls, handcuffs, blow up sheep :whistle: Hope to see you all there. Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 Vic has started his skittles training= large brandy's and throwing hand grenades!. Reckon we may have to watch Vic next year - is going to be one to watch for the trophy - apart from us Dorset guys. I hope Tony has good experience in crowd control - it could kick off if Vic wins :whistle: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs Hardyferret Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 The Dorset Boys will have Hardyferret on the team :-D - at the last match each time it was his 'go' the guys doing the putting up took cover behind a barricade of tables!!!! :shake: and the back wall of the ally has now had to be reinforced........................... He..he.....he...I think the weekend is going to be huge fun - Mvs doing there stuff, a load of 'boys and their toys' running around on Salisbury plain - with permission, camped next to a pub, the chance that Jack will see more Orbs and maybe the Drummer Boy :schocked: , HF working his magic in the skittle ally :evil: ....................... the only thing missing so far is Markheliops and his two new friends :whistle: with their camera man. :whistle: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
