Gill, Mark
What can I say? Perfect weather, faultless organisation (although we missed your Pa on car parking), good company and wonderful models. The Armortek family gathering at its best.
Thanks to you both - next year is only 364 days away and by then, we'll know what the next model is. No, I didn't ask. Thanks again - we all appreciated your hard work (and that of all the Armortek team).
Regards
Stephen

Gill and Mark,
What can I say but, just simply agree with Stephen. A perfect day and on being my first visit, "WOW"
The models on show from you guys were great, and the company of one and all a big second to none
Thankyou
Rob

ARGHHH!! Missed Stephen but saw his great P3 model
Met most of the guys I have spoken to or messaged and its so nice to meet people in the flesh
Tim, Lee to name just a few.
It was so nice to meet Gill and Mark at last and some of the very helpful staff
I also express my thanks to Paul Morris and the rest of the panzer north team for taking me to Armortek and meeting everyone. Also a high to those that asked where I was
A great day out and many thanks to you all but sadly I had to depart earlier than anticipated due to bad family news.
Regards Stewart
Ps Gill I still want that you know what breach thingy
Pss To thee most talented scouser I have ever met! Cheers Ian

Ok There was one Swedish guy at the show that I recognise as the king
of KT research!
Mr Per Sonnervik
Being a mere mortal I did not dare to introduce myself?
Popycock in reality as the KT is far to heavy for me
Never the less it was great to see him!

Hi Gill and Mark,
I just wanted to write and say how dreadfully sad
I feel that I missed the open day yesterday, looking at the pictures it seems you had a glorious day and I only wish that I could have been a part of it, if only to have been able to meet other fellow tankers. Unfortuanately I was playing at being a grandparent, a task that somehow gets bestowed on me quite regular and sometimes at short notice also.
Regardless it is great to look at the pics and see that all had an enjoyable time so it is only left for me to say I hope to meet you all maybe next year.
Regards
Steve.
PS Tiger nearly finished, check it out in the Gallery

A big thanks to Gill and Mark plus family, as yet again a great day out. Nice to see the old faces again ( and some do look old ) plus a lot of new ones. The amount of different types of vehicles plus the level of skill and time people have put into them, show's just how far this hobby has gone in the plus few years.
A big thanks to everyone who voted for my Half-Track, as the prize was a flight in a light plane plus having a go at flying it.
Oh, thanks also for the refreshments, made a lot of guys very happy
Thanks Nigel.
