This is a prestige, invatation only, multi period event.

This is the sucessor to the late lamented Kirby Hall show. This year will be our third time taking part. In the past two years the weather has not been kind to us, to put it mildly, so this year lets hope for a fine sunny weekend.

Lots of interest was shown in our group by all those who braved the wind and rain and a walk up the hill. We had quite a few genuine Russian visitors to this one who were very pleased to see the Red Army represented.

As usual the beer tent in the evening was fun, with the now ritual of swopping hats with members of other groups from different time periods.

Cheers, Ade.

yeh I loved this event it's not too big and not too small, so you get just enough attention without being rushed all day and we had the march at the end which was good.

I loved this event as well......

yes and we all know why

Missed last years' due to cash flow problems. Hope I can make this one as it's a nice prelude to the big one at Detling. Even if you don't cop off it's still a nice show.

You can pitch your plash well away from us next time

Cheers, Ade.

Ahem - sorry guys!

But apart from that, it would be great to get a bigger turn-out at Kelmarsh this year. The MoP's that go to this gig are really good and generally ask intelligent questions about the kit, weapons and the GPW.

Makes a refreshing change from the usual 'Who are you supposed to be?'

1. what happend last time at kelmarsh?? 2. I will be able to attend this event

unspeakable things that cannot be mentioned on a public forum. we'll tell you later

I vote we get Robin his own pitch

the horror ..... the horror .... the moo-ing

1st Guards Rifle Regiment - 2nd Guards Rifle Division

I am hopefull of a bigger turnout than the previous 2 years, we can look better with a bigger turnout.

............Roman..............

Verny Ruslan, busted!! i never knew the second guards would be this much of a laugh!

Heh, it is, it is, and of course all the in-jokes and anecdotes will become clearer when you get to know us better in person....

verbum sapienti as they say....

To which I can only say Qui Dabel! Which is to say, Halit in feri don set iglaer!
Stef knows what I'm talking about.

They do say a concrete lamp post never goes deaf!
