Default armed forces day

Richard i have to say with help and surport form yourself, micky, paul bill and the other vehicles for the convoy getting the carrier to the event went nice and smooth for my first carrier outting.
Even though the MV's werent ment to be the main attraction and it was ment to be a day for the cadet force i think the carrier stole the day.

to pinch your words WHAT A FANTASTIC DAY !!!

Theres not much more i could add to this thread apart from thank you and your always welcome, will let you know when the next one is.
