West bound M3 come of at junction 8 onto A303, Strait on for about 25 MLS till you approach Countess round-a-bout, take the third exit onto the A345 Devizes, follow road for aprox 1m till you hit next round-a-bout, take first exit of and follow road through Larkhill Garrison, drive strait on till you find Fargo camp on your left, about 1 & 1/2 mls on you will see Rollestone to your right, Directions for camp site. South bound M5 Gloster Junction 11A, take 417 to Swindon, cross M4 A346 to Burbage, take A338 signed Salisbury follow road to Tidworth, drive through Tidworth for 5 MLS passing Shipton Bellinger on your right, drive under the A303 and you come to a rounder-a-bout, take 3RD exit of and get onto the A303 then follow directions above.

ArtistsRifles Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 Not to me it don't - I had a figure of around £600 return in the budget for this event...... Same firm quoted £500 each way from Thurrock Services to W&P!! If I were working it might well be a different story but right now funds are most definitely finite and if it's not in the budget it just don't happen!!!

sirhc Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 Neil, I think you need to do some shopping around. A friend just got a quote from Swindon to Derby for £400 one way for a tracked vehicle. Try calling round some plant hire companies, they won't be busy at the moment. People who move tractors for a living are also useful. I've used both and had good service.

It's ironic that, had I still been at work then I could likely have got one of the firms hauling stuff from the Ford New Holland plant in Basildon to help out!!!
