AndyFowler Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 I love it mate ! Lots of fun ! Lots of mad MV enthusiasts and nothing taken too seriously ! There is a charge per vehicle and that normally admits two adults and two children per vehicle ! Have a look here http://www.thewarandpeaceshow.com/ and my albums of last years show are on my profile page !:-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

julezee001 Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 Mr.Cadman who organises the W & P show, spoke to various people today at a Militaria gathering in Warwick. He suggested that the Hop Farm was not sure about the show for 2010, and so he was considering finding a new site?? Whether this was a wind up, or an honest comment??? Only Mr.C. knows. The only obvious extra reason is that the agreement with IMPS, who originally started the show runs out this year, hence they are setting up their own show with Headcorn aerodrome this year in August. So numbers could seriously drop at W & P in 2010? Jules Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thor698 Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Thanks Jules, Andy and Young Gun for your replies on War and Peace - they have been really helful. We live twenty miles north of GDSF site so would come up A303 M3 M25 which would be the best way from there to show site :??? How many miles roughly do you think I would do ?:-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
younggun Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 (edited) which would be the best way from there to show site :???

AndyFowler Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 AA routemap says 150 miles each way so six of these grease stops should do it ! Good luck mate!:bow::bow::bow: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyFowler Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 It is normally possible to arrive a fair bit earlier than the actual show is on and leave after it has finished if you want to stretch it out mate ! I normally get there the Saturday before and even then it can be filling up ! Always room for more Explorers though !!!! :-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
