Beltring(War and peace Show)

I had quite a good day at the show on Friday, I found some nice items for my ammunition collection. I met Waff and Roller as well. Some of the stuff is extremely over priced for what it is though.
 
Hi Chaps!

I just got back from the show for a quick shufty round before i hit the bottle/shower/kip(in any order!)
Im knacked after that gruelling drive back(a day later than planned).
I just want to thank everyone of you who came to see old waff at the stall,as Roller said its nice to put a face to the name.
Also a big thank you to Madbomber and the Dutch lads who looked after me when Mick and Skippy abandoned me on some secret mission on Friday night,i had a ball over at the BBQ.:xd:
When im recovered properly,then i will post some pics of the swag i picked up both from Beltring and some packages from a while ago that i had stacked up waiting for me.
Im completely blown out and skint but im sure you will agree about the bits i picked up!

In fact cheers to you all!,there are too many names that i will have to list here!
I also recruited some new members as well,so heres hoping they will join up.

ps.

Jeeensy,nobody can say the word `cans` as in grenade cans quite like you mate!:xd:
it just rolled off the tongue!:xd: Must be that Southern accent matey!;)
`caans`,i just cant stop saying it!

I can tell you that the biggest cases you see have gone,also that big blue 155 whopper went on Friday too along with some of the others.
Also that box of cases at the entrance sold to a chap who is shipping them to Japan!
A guy from New Zealand bought the 88 as well.

I was actually very well behaved on the Ale last week to keep a clear hunting head on my shoulders.
Ben brought over some evil Brazilian vodka/petrol that i was sampling Tuesday night,that was something else!!
Ive brought you a mystery box from Tigbrand and i will deliver it when i know im free for a trip North.
Ive also bought a modernish tail-fin off a large bomb for my new BBQ stand!

Hi Waff,

I was in and out of your stall for most of the week, didn't buy anything unfortunately.

If you get a chance could you ask Mick if the projectile on the 75mm Recoilless round on the stall is the same as the one on the M66 75mm Howitzer round?

Thanks in advance,
Paul
