Apologies if this is getting off subject of the thread, but it is titled War & Peace show 2012.

As Jan has explained in the previous post, I am promoting the annual Corowa military vehicle gathering in Australia, at War & Peace show this year, we, the organisers of the event, have produced a special edition newsletter all about the event, reports from this year's one, photos of vehicles that have attended in recent years and tourist information, etc. Anyone who is planning on going to Australia for a holiday could consider including it in their itinerary.

I will be found in America Field during the W&P show, with Corowa display boards, beside my Bedford QL, if not around, please give me a ring on the mobile number displayed there and we can meet up for a chat about the event.

A photo of a few of the vehicles from this year's event.

No excuse Sergeant, really, no excuse...

Barry, Sent your carrier with your son. We need it to get the numbers.

Cheers,

Oh, you mean like like a "how to" demo for everyone to see?

Perhaps we can set ourselves a challenge! Can we reassemble a carrier in 24 hours living only on beer and greasy dog burgers?

You bring the compressor and furnace down on the train and I'll sort the rest..........or perhaps we can leave our carriers at home and just ask (bribe with beer) the others for a quick go in theirs.

I'm just hoping for some sun. I've heard it's either dusty or muddy.

Ben

tickets were well pricey to get there.. but much better than the six or so hours driving + fuel etc etc. I can't wait ! i have been wanting to get there for the last three years but something has always got in the way.
