'War and Peace' show
on: July 13, 2011, 10:22:38 AM
The largest military vehicle gathering in Europe: http://www.thewarandpeaceshow.com/ and this was just one of the surprises in store in 2010: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?id=100001562980362&frecId=false&qn=1310547848&tid=182996718417949&success=15&failure=0&set=oa.202693359781618#!/media/set/?set=oa.202693359781618

If you're attending the show, come into the model marquee which is the big tent just off the approach road to the arena, i'll be there for the duration.

Well I'll be there with Karen in tow. I have never been before. We are thinking of covering Friday/Sat or Sat/Sunday. Apparantly there is good music on the Friday night? Anyone have suggestions on a good place to stay overnight?

I've sent a request to join the face book group Nick.

Thanks

Terry

Ayup Terry, accepted into the fold matey. As for accommodation? ... I would think most of the hostelries are just about full by now, have a look on the 'War and Peace' web site and see if they can suggest anywhere. Alternatives are to google Paddock Wood and search the accommodation there or bring a tent, we'll get you in somewhere behind the caravan. Oh, the music is good, a tad LOUD but good. See you there and bring a stout pair of walking boots and your camera. Just to whet your appetite a little more, here's a few pics from last year ...







... and a Scammell Pioneer straight out of the hedge ...

Erm ... sorry Terry, it's been raining on and off since Saturday morning, we need lots of sunshine now to harden the ground off.
