Marmite!! Posted March 1, 2010 Author Posted March 1, 2010 Sorry for the lack of updates, due to not being 100% fit at the mo, but the show goes on. Planning is progressing well with booking forms from traders, MV's & groups landing on the door mat each day. We are please to welcome back Andy & the rest of our arena team of W&P fame, we have some new events for the arena this year. Don't forget if you have an old banger (distance within reason) that you want to get rid of & you want to give it a Vikings Funeral, have it pulled in half or just want me to blow it up then donate it to us & we will make good use of it.:cool2: We have some new groups joining us this year, also we have stationary steam engines booked in. So if you have an MV, Classic Car, Emergency Vehicle, Stationary/Steam Engine or are a Living History group, you can download a booking form here www.bunkerbash.co.uk Cheers Lee Quote

Marmite!! Posted March 7, 2010 Author Posted March 7, 2010 To celebrate the 70th Anniversary of the LDV/Home Guard (if all goes to plan) we will have a unique display at this years show... details to follow... The government and senior military officials rapidly compared plans and by 13 May had worked out an improvised plan for a home defence force, to be called the Local Defence Volunteers, but the rush to complete a plan and announce it to the public had led to a number of administrative and logistical problems, such as how the volunteers in the new force would be armed, which would cause problems as the force evolved. However, on the evening of 14 May 1940 the Secretary of State for War, Anthony Eden, gave a radio broadcast announcing the formation of the Local Defence Volunteers and called for volunteers to join the force.
