The 30th of July Juul (zerocool), his dad, Danny (Eagle) and I will take the Boat across the channel and invade England. in this 5 day trip we will visit Bovington, Aldershot (the Airborne Museum) and Stonehenge.
Now during this trip we will meet up With Joe (greatbrit) and Pete (Stormbringer) My question is: Is there a possibility to meet up with others? Would be fun to meet more people of the UK group at one of the locations we visit.
So What do you think about it? I would like to hear from you guys.

I thought I would stir up this post again. Looking at all the posts made here I can`t believe the UK section only counts 4 Members. So People drop in cause I still think a visit to Bovington or Aldershot would be much much cooler if you visit it with a bunch of Armorama Members.

rob,
i think the problem is we UK members are pretty spread out, so getting to the south coast might be a problem for some of us.
have you decided which day you are going to bovington? they way things are going, i may have to stay overnight because of how long it will take to get down there.
cheers

Well,
since I'm in charge of the "Planning", I would say that Saturday looks good for visiting Bovington.... but hey, when you want us to be there on another day, just let me know, I'm a flexible guy

thanks for the info danny,
judging by the fact it will take me 6 hours to travel to bovington, i think travelling on the day will be near impossible, so im looking into going down the day before are staying somewhere.
saturday should be ok, ill get the day before off work!
cheers

bad news im afraid gents,
i wont be able to make it this weekend,
i have been unable to get the neccessary time off work to go down the day before, and due to the travel times involved, it would be impossible to get down on saturday morning.
sorry to let you guys down, im dissapointed myself as i was looking forward to it. maybe if you come over again, or i visit holland we could meet up in the future!
regards
joe
