“We’ll probably lose the rest of the vets this year“.

Ooooh, Andy – how depressive!!

This one, for one, is not leaving yet!!

If you are still alive Sir would very much like to have you there.

mmmm, cider…;)

Please be aware I accept not responsibilty for the effects of the local brew. If you are not familiar with its effects then proceed with extreme caution !
The party will be held at the local Rugby club 100 metres from the site which supply the various run of the mill stuff for public consumption. If you want to try the hard stuff come and see me at the officers mess, be warned you may not wake up until the 2012 show.

I disagree. Youngsters now receive such a paltry education in history, as in much else, that ANYTHING which helps to educates them better cannot be forgotten. By the same token you will find few who have ever heard of the two battles you mention. For that we should be ashamed.

Not true all primary school kids learn about WWII as part of the curriculum including the battle of Britain. I recently entertained a group from a local school and fired up the Spitty. They loved it and sent me a pic from every kid in the class. I found them all very attentive while i gave them a 20 minute talk and asked allot of intelligent questions.
Anyway this is about a show not school education!! it amazes me how many of these threads end up as an argumemt about an unrelated subject ???

Thanks Bruce must have missed it. 😮 Really thought it was earlier

Being that I only live down the road in Weston, it would be rude not to turn up!

I used to do a bit of the re-enacting stuff about 15 years ago, and still have my WW2 RAF kit. Trouble is, is that I may need a spot of liposuction to get into it again!

I’ll be there, and give us a shout if you need a hand in any way!

Hello Gareth happy new year to you long time no see, would be great to have you send me an email on how much space you need, could you bring along a few items to display from your digs? camping is available from Friday and above ground fires are allowed, have lost Hanks number if you could pass that on would appreciate it. 🙂

I hope its going to be an annual event. Last year we were to busy with our Spitfire touring various events this year is much quieter.
