Hi anyone else going to the tankfest on Sunday?
Place in ground, keep at arms length, light the blue touch paper and stand back!

Father died 2007 - soil very sandy so needed time to settle. Nothing to be sorry about really Ade. I have pics of just about every tank there from my visit in 2006 - thanks anyway. It is a brilliant place - just wished I lived closer.

I went today. Shows were great, have a nice time. I come back with a fov 1:32 stuart, and nearly a tank round.

I went yesterday, it rained all the way down and so I forgot to apply the suncream when I got there! Rather burnt arms and face now, it was very hot and there is no shade at all around the arena and outdoor displays.
Very good day out though, That STUG-3 gun was impressive to hear and despite the rumours going round the tank guys I spoke to, the mighty Tiger was running.
