BAD Meet 21st Feb 10am

Post by wibblywobbly »

Can't let Manchester have all the fun! :wave:

The first Bristol Armoured Division meet for 2016 will be on 21st Feb, at the scout hut in Temple Combe.

Directions from the North:

Temple Combe is south of Shepton Mallet.
Just stay on the road past the showground and keep going, you will see it signposted eventually.
When you enter the village you will go through traffic calming and then see a railway bridge over the road.
Just before the railway bridge turn left.
20 yards and turn left where it says Village Hall.
20 yards and you will see a car park with a building in front of you.
Down the left side of that building is a short track.
We are down there, you can't miss the hut as you will be in the middlle of a field if do!

We only collect enough subs to pay for the hut, £10 will more than cover it.
Tea/Coffee provided, but you will have to bring your own sandwiches etc.
We have excellent heating, lots of scenery, and plenty of tables, the hall is carpeted and great for running tanks.

If you fancy a play with your tanks, then roll up and walk in.
Only one rule, well two really.

1. No bb's, we either run tanks or battle using standard IR (eg not the HL version).
2. Bring a sense of humour and common sense. :P

See you there!

Hi, I am hoping to get down there for a first visit. Not sure whether my Tiger will be ready run by then though. Would it still be OK to turn up tankless?

We will be happy to see you, with or without your Tiger (which is looking pretty good by the way). We each usually take at least a couple of tanks so if you don't have it ready I am sure one of us will be willing to lend you one for a run around.

Look forward to meeting you at last! :P

It's about 1 1/2 hour drive for me, so it's very unlikely I'll be there by 10. Since I retired, the alarm clock is a thing of the past, so I get up when I wake up! I had enough of early mornings. However, I should be there in time for elevenses :D

I know that feeling, don't worry about the time, you will be made welcome no matter when you get there.

By all means, we are always playing around with the tanks anyway, someone always manages to watch as a part falls off or malfunctions at some point during the day. :eh:
