Tony, Kevin, Hanno, thanks for posting some pics of the event and good to hear you had a great time.
Anyone know more about the Ford Staff car? It's right hand drive, so wonder if anyone knows more about it. Lovely car! Alex

That was one car I meant to ask a bit about Alex and didnt get back to it. Sorry about that...
Great pictures Hanno - very sorry I didnt get to meet you face to face. I was determined to get around everyone, but it just didnt pan out that way, I think Mark Van Alderen was there as well but I didnt get to meet him either. Some other photo's, Blitz Semi, trailer is french built, replica of Albert Balls Nieuport, a very neat little Valentine tank with amphibious landing canvas.

Tried not to leave any stone unturned at this event as I do not know if I'll ever get back.
This is also for the blokes on the forum who may never get to War and Peace. M8 Greyhound with 'crew', the stalls and Russian Jeep, your's truly with the closest shot we could get of the Panther. The Panther was one used by the French after the war then used as a Range target. Rescued by the Rex the guy who runs War and Peace but it is not a runner. I would think the cost of getting it to go would be prohibitive..

Was great to meet you Nigel, thoroughly enjoyed your conversation.
The living history display you lads did was very impressive and a credit to you. Could have easily been passing you a note as a dispatch rider from headquarters in Alexandria. Your carrier is a beauty by the way if I didn't say so on the day...

I suppose I shouldnt have been surprised at the amount of German equipment that was at W&P - but I was.
Anyway, there were a couple of impressive displays of German equipment as well Perhaps someone could identify the individual pieces in this set of photo's so everyone (including me) knows what they are... From my limited knowledge - anti aircraft gun.... 20mm? 75mm Pak L/48 anti tank, same gun as on the Mark IV? Perhaps? Half Track (either German or Czech), Opel Blitz Truck (Dont know the truck on the left), Panther and Kubelwagon (possibly replica)

I don't often post on here, but thought I'd share some photos - it was great to see Dirk again and meet Peter. Also chatted to (I think) Maurice (judging by an earlier comment) Wish I'd known it was you as I'd have loved to swap notes on the F22.
Here are some photos anyway

To be fair it's very different to mine (different fuel tanks and external battery box), but I'm guessing it was the one as it had the big wheels and the trailer hitch was in the FGT position.
