Ok Arnhem gents , can you give a thought to the props we want to use for this event ?

So far I've heard signs , possibly mortars, vehicles, pyros and and and .... well have a think and post it up 8) .

B&Q beckons me onwards to greater feats .

( still fancy making a Nebelwerfer just for the oh my god factor of it )

List em here as you think of them and we'll work our way through it .

I think thats the decent thing to do make him a guest, and ensure he gets to do nothing but play and have fun.

LOL - just been watching a Bridge too Far this time with the directors commentary. Anthony Hopkins calls his men together on the airborne landing with a hunting horn! Uses it later in place of a whistle to start an attack! No idea whether it's authentic but it just looked so right for his character.

Forgot to mention , Syd Glyderrider asked if we wanted a nebelwerfer making for Arnhem, any thoughts ?.

He keeps busting my nuts about the V1 as well, although I've told him to forget about it unitl May .

I've had a thought of my own ot knock up a bazooka and a panzerfaust ot use in a similar way to the mortars, but just delivering a mark nine to a chosen spot. thoughts on that as well pls

He works as a security guard in a pipe factory , as long as it's round he's up for making it :lol: :lol: :lol:

I don't mind so much , althoughh as you may have gathered by now I quite enjoy this aspect of the organiser myself . There's also the question of money and ownership .
