How was it Clayton? You had fantastic weather for it
 Although I was on call I didnt get called out !!! so defender got a full wash, 2 layers of wax including the wheels and tyres blackened so looking very smart and best of all I was being paid whilst doing it 2015 HT XS 90

The day was great and the display was interesting - even if the Dartmoor Rescue Group had a call out mid way though the afternoon !! there were a variety of landrovers and a few sales vendors on site, with lots for the kids to do.
The off-road course was interesting at times and undamageing (apart from one incident where that rear end of non-landrover vehicle was rearranged ) a few interning areas mainly due to the mud from the rain this week, but many vehicles were fine on road tyres and careful driving. A few 66 plate discoveries and a few series twos went round and had no issues. we were marshalling the course for half the day and everyone we saw going round had a big smile on their face! the offload course took about an hour to go round due to there being some moody bits and vehicle separation on the decent. one for the diary next year I think - its probably going to get bigger each year A good day out Poppy - TDCI (Puma) 110XS 2.2 - Camper conversion - see the build here - https://www.defender2.net/forum/topic56530.html

Agree with the above
It was a cracking day with perfect weather and i would call the event " A social gathering of like minded people " Its a great day out and very relaxing and i thoroughly enjoyed it and there was loads for the kids to do of all ages 
Sulisuli i am very jealous of you having a good session on your landy  but i did have a good time on my landy a week ago 1996 Golf Blue 300Tdi 110 Pick up.

Wyvern, Clayton came past just as I was having to turn round to go recover the 110 stuck sideways on the steep hill.
BTW clayton it was good to catch up abeit briefly as my second lunch resupply run got a little hectic. Film of the days events will be up soonish. |

The young lady was very embarrassed when she came past me some time later - she was sitting in the passengers seat at the time ...
