Markheliops Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 Hi all. I am attending the Wings, Wheels and Steam Show at Tunbridge Wells on Sunday 19th July 2009 being held at Groombridge Place Gardens, Groombridge. As it happens, I shall be camped up at Beltring for the 2009 War and Peace by this date so it makes sense to attend this show as it is only up the road so to speak. I have approached a few HMFV members who I know will be camped in the Hop Farm for the big one so we can convoy to this show. I am planning to convoy from The Hop Farm at 0900hrs. It is the usual one day local show but should be a good day out (here's hoping for decent weather). The event is being run at two locations with the vehicles and steam engines at Groombridge Place and the Spa Valley Railway operating a steam railway service (just for you Grasshopper) over a five mile stretch between Tunbridge Wells and Eridge. For those who will not be at Beltring, vehicles have to be in situ for 1100am. The show times are from 1000hrs - 1700hrs. All vehicles attending the show must register in advance. Entry to the event is FREE of charge to any owner / driver plus two passengers. To register and obtain an entry form please contact the following: Jill Todd (Events Manager) - 01622 813888 or 07831 123987 or e-mail jtc001@btinternet.com Markheliops Jack / Joris - Can we have a War and Peace Show 2009 board and this included. Thanks chaps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marmite!! Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 Just make sure if you are leaving from the W&P site that you leave someone behind to watch your kit or the pikeys may have it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excellent - We must be able to get someone else to watch the camp - I am sure there will be other green owners around who will not be going. Tina and Graham (Scammell) will be on site. If they do not go to the show we could bribe him with beer, etc. Lee / Ian. We should be on site long enough to find some willing volunteers.

ArtistsRifles Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 Cheers, mate...........(a convoy from site would be a good ) Funny - I was just thinking the same thing - be an interesting sight for all those attending from the W&P location. Would the Kent Police be OK with us doing that?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would the Kent Police be OK with us doing that?? During W+P the kent police are well used to convoys of MV's on the road. I don't mind being last, as I have a convoy number plate and super amber lights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would suggest depending on the number attending from Beltring small sized packets would be ideal with a wrecker at the rear to deal with breakdowns.
