If it is going to be wet next week then I hope the organisers ban the unnecessary use of vehicles throughout the dirt roads as it will turn into a huge impassable bog again, within a very short space of time.

It's not real... it's called re-enacting!

Hi Craig, yes, we would be in our element with water, but not with quicksand or mud though, Lol.

With regard to my quote above, what were the crew of that Chinese bulldozer/tank monstrosity thinking of by ploughing through the plastic camp each evening??? the mind boggles!!

Hi Guys, I was talking with the head shed of 2nd armored, he said that Belters had been sold off and this could be that last yr,etc.. and Rex was not taking such a high profile as usual??.Yes I know we have had these rumours since the late 80s etc.. But wondered if any of you guys had heard such stuff?.. Bloody shame if its true and going to be a bloody housing estate .One of the wonders of the world!..hoping its all B"""dust.
Cheers Pete

if it does get sold off i am sure someone will step up to the plate and put on something, there are a number of large sites in the south east which could be used.

You wait Les Hern will be the next Rex Cadman :shock: :wink: :lol:

I've spoken on the phone today to someone who is already there.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but, unfortunately, the place is like a quagmire already. Also, the '4 x 4 crowd' have already churned up the road linking the arena to the plastic camping :roll: .
