Hi,
I am in Wareham so if you are setting up today, Friday, and need a hand this afternoon I can come over.
Mark.

[Armortek]

Mark, much appreciated. We’re planning to be down tomorrow from about six forty five. Help then would be very useful. Thanks. Stephen

[Mark Weddell]

Okay, I'll see you all tomorrow morning.
Mark.

Tiger Day IX was blessed three ways, a great turnout of customers, models and the Armortek team, it didn't rain and it was the debut of the new Armortek tentage. Apparently, the Armortek stand has been difficult to spot. Not any more... Captions? You're not going to miss it on event days.

The Armortek stand and running area was on the Car Park for the first time, a good trial run for a larger presence at TankFest at the end of June. It was a successful location and attracted a lot of attention as it's close to the arena and museum entrance. The only downside for TankFest will be the need for some creative solutions to creating some interesting features in the running area. Suggestions would be very welcome. We are planning on creating a gap for the Bailey Bridge to span, a simulated World War One trench and some running obstacles and hills to test driving skills. This is probably going to involve sandbags, pallets and possibly astroturf.

Thanks to everyone who attended.

Many thanks for the organisation Stephen

I hadn't realised how well the tent matches the colour of in the Armortek signage. Maybe there was a plan in place

It's amazing how quickly we can pack up when the skies go dark

Hopefully for TankFest we won't have to suffer people driving cars and riding bikes through our area

Thanks Adrian. I've mentioned the cars and bikes in my feedback to the TM. Stephen
