Probably heading over there on the Sunday, its local to me. Theres already a lot of vehicles and kit gathering in the area, spotted a couple of tanks being trailered in this morning, and a sodding great big Ural truck heading out for supplies. Could be a bit muddy this year, then again there was an impromptu mud wrestling competition the other year when it rained.

Would love to, but not this year. :cry:

We will possibly be going on Saturday depending on the conditions underfoot. We have friends that went yesterday to set up as they stay for the whole week. They have a 7.5 ton truck and were towed in by a Manitou fork lift. They run the radio controlled tanks. Apparently the walk ways are like the Somme at the moment.
