For anyone who would like to know, the Bristol Armoured Division now has a new venue. Many thanks to George for doing the groundwork to get this sorted, I am sure we all owe him a vote of thanks. We have two halls, the one in the video is half the size of the other one, and (again thanks to George) we also have a hard foam ground surface to run the tanks on, and it works brilliantly.
Coffee facilities are available, and local shops can provide other refreshments and hot food etc.
Here's a quick ten minute video that shows the hall we used last Sunday. As someone once said 'The Eagle has landed'.

George has proposed the following dates for Corsham
- 3rd June & 8th July. Responses please. Apparently, the 3rd is the only available Sunday in June. Unfortunately, I am not available on either of these dates, but please don't let that stop the rest of you. Not that it would!

Another excellent meet, and another two new members, which was good to see. I took some pics, as I know Richard (Silversurfer) is possibly wondering what he missed.

No August meeting, I'm afraid. George is checking out available dates for September, October and November so we can plan ahead.

They didn't have the space for us last year, so we dropped them for this year. We are looking at a couple of other venues/shows though.

Hi im interested in BAD , interested in joining but am in Gloucester but am from Bristol.
I've been told there is a meeting in Corsham on 2/9 and have it on my calender.
That video of the HL King Tiger is fantastic. I have 2 HL King Tiger's which I've just bought and would love to modify to moved and sound like that. The gun recoil front HL is appalling and so is the sound in comparison.
P.s. I don't have any buildings at the moment
