Guys,
I have friends that have been staying there for over a week now and it's even worse than in 2007. Even tanks with rubber pads are stuck in the mud. Trucks like DAF YA328 with 6 wheel drive stuck to their axles in the mud. Most fields are either mud or full. The weather forecast is also not good. So, come prepared. Bring at least a snorkel or best is a LCT. Cheers,

The organisers have put out a bulletin to contradict the rumours about the show being cancelled due to the mud.
I'm still going to take my wellies though. Ron http://www.warandpeaceshow.com/News/News/ |

I remember 07 well. The carrier was one of few vehicles that could move in the mud. It was the only vehicle that could get over the knife edge, as most tanks just slipped backwards. The only problem was ever time you stopped moving you had to clear the mud from around the wheels or it would dry and I would loose all braking as the steering wheel would not turn. No warp steering and no brake steering. Tip: clean the mud off once you stop especially around the front boogies. Have a great time, Rick tie a rope behind the carrier and try mud skiing it's great fun.!! Baz |
