Dean

Hi Dean, I am hoping to be there, work permitting... Funny how the unimportant things always get in the way.
I've missed the last couple on account of these pesky money making activities but I am tryi ng my best to make the boss see how it is important for me to be there. :p

I'll be there, weather permitting.

Rumour control has it that Charlie Fitton and Stewart Loy may show up.

Will be there.....
 

....and will offer "ferry" services to and fro Acton if less than 500 pounds....

I may even bring that WW1 Canadian Army, Vimy marked "Peg leg" to show it off!!!

Dean

Forgot to mention, I have a couple of all parts lists (?) manuals that are GM Oshawa war dated..just got them..so I guess I will bring them..as well I do have some Canadian Army Issue rope...2 bits that are 60 feet long and one inch in thickness..then I have a 200 foot length..that is thiicker...if anyone is interested in those, I will bring them out...but unless someone asks..they stay in the basement as they are HEAVY!!!!

Dean

Hey Dean, thats part of the program you know... Haul al the heavy stuff to the show and back home again, its a great workout for free. Been there, done that.
See you there.

hello everyone
never been there before-what type of show is it and what is usually there?

This is one of the semi anuual OMVA swap meets we have. You may see the odd vehicle. but that is usually reserved for the Summer Show.
The swap is a great meeting place for like minded mv and militaria collectors.
At the show there are several tables of misc militaria but catering mostly to mv parts and accessories. From WW1 to current.
You never know what may show up.
This is held at the Acton Legion.

If all goes accordingly, I shall be there on Saturday. A good chance to see all my pals again and offer up some bargains....
I have dug deep into the archives and have been buying up some odd and ends to replentish my stock. I should have something for everyone. I have found a few odd items that we don't see everyday that will be on offer.
I will have mv parts, radio items, web gear and militaria as well as some collectable out of print books.

Well Lookig forward to seeing you, I just sent an email to Robert L..he is heading off to Ottawa to do some Medal research and will do some for me...

Anything I may like?????

DEan

Actually I do...
1915 .303 cloth bandoleer, a little rough but well marked and authentic Canadiana. I thought of you when I came across it.

Mine..if the price is fair...trying to sort out a WW1 unifrom.

Dean

Dean, I am always fair.... :p

Charlie,

The "no" response was very funny, but . . . . .

Fire extinguisher $20

Gas for trip $60

Watching you Charlie try to write me (in error) a cheque for something you had screwed up a while ago . .Priceless

And yes there were witnesses!!

thanks for making my trip worthwhile Charlie

Thanks to all the antendees of the show this past weekend!
It is always nice to see everyone, talk green stuff and b.s. a little bit.
Overall, the weather co-operated and I think it was a successful show.
