Hi all,

Trying to arrange a meet at the Bovingdon Tank Museum on 27 Nov 2011. This has a stunning collection of hardware, (most fitted with big powerful engines and some with turbos etc). The cost to get in is £12 per person unless we can get a guaranteed 15 members togetherand arrange it as a group visit. If you pay the full £12 you can get in as many times as you like over the next year. There is a large car park too.

Anyone interested? Thought we could have a pre-christmas regional get together.

http://www.tankmuseum.org/home is the link to the museum website.

Cheers

A bit of a random choice but may well be up for this!

Not that random, lol, have had interest from down this way. We are also looking at other trips to the Haynes Motor Museum and Fleet Air Arm Musem in the future!

Spect - Is it worth popping this in the forum calender for more to see on open forum? Might be worth seeing if we can get a few more to attend that way.....

Must be someone else interested in going? I always try to do a military museum at this time of year in rememberance of those who fought for and with us. I will personally be remembering friends no longer with us but who would have loved to see this museum.
