richie

Hi Richie,

I'll bring some stuff with me but I won't have room for the wheel barrow I'll make sure I bring my boots this time as I think it will be a muddy day

Ant

Hi Guys

Are we still on for tomorrow as its raining heavy here. if not, as i said before your well here

Clive need to pick your brains on some stuff aswell

Richie

Hi Guys

The bridge is now finished!!! hope you all like it. It has taken us longer than expected, hopefully bringing it up tomorrow (if it fits in the van). Any luck on the concete block - anyone?? otherwise it won't last five minutes sat on the ground, as it is very wet there.

Pictures below.









And finally...... Lisa has added her own little finishing touch ....

Hi Richie,

That looks bloody superb mate , Lisa and you have done a great job and I like the little touch at on the last photo.

Paul .

Wow

I agree with Paul, FANTASTIC Can't wait to see it tomorrow. Superb job Richie & Lisa. Well Done

Antony

Hi Richie and Lisa.
Yep got to agree with everyone you have done a real good job on that, you really have you should be very pleased with the end result, well done .

Road and earth.
Sent them a mail as i promised not heard a thing back, i think its like i said we have got a plot to run on and i think thats about all we are going to get?
No blocks here sorry, and with the the weather today and yesterday it could be a very bad day to start digging anything...perhaps.
Cheers Paul &Vinny

Richie,
The bridge looks amazing. Hard to tell its made of chip board or wood at all. Really nice. Aren't you glad you didn't scrap it now?

Hi Guys

Thanks for the kind words. see you tomorrow.

Robert i nearly did, its in the way of my kt


Richie

Cheers Paul

Hi All,

After a soggy start we were blessed with a little sunshine so managed to get our tanks out for their first outing over "Wignal" bridge.



Paul Will's Tiger going for it's first run over the new bridge.



My Panther too enjoying the view from the bridge.



Duncan's new T34



Paul M's Sherman which is still For Sale but only just If you're interested be quick. It is a beauty and runs sooooo smoothly.



In the background is Richie's Tiger with his tool box next to it, but I won't go into anymore detail as I might upset him

Not too many photo's taken as I bought some dud batteries that didn't last too long.

Richie & Lisa your bridge is superb, even better in the flesh, FANTASTIC & THANKS for not charging a toll for using it

The website for blanks is www.bromsports.co.uk and they are in Hereford.

Thanks Antony

Hi Guys

Had a great day . Antony, the pictures you took were great . Don't tell Lisa about the toll bridge idea, or she'll be charging us!!

Yes, tool box out again. Snapped 8 links, and when i got home I noticed another 3 had broke . 11 in total . Not happy. I think I've got a bad batch of track, as Im constantly breaking links, but I have noticed that they are not drilled centrally, and that just on one side. Not checked the other side yet.

See you in two weeks.

Richie

Here's the link to some more photo's of the open day that you may not have seen:
