Yes, you can pay after the event as Dadio says. I gather trying to pay by phone is an 'interesting' experience, so I prepaid. It isn't any different ...

Just Friday for me. Cheers Martin

I have already prepaid for two crossings. It isn't very hard to do, but you need to remember to do it! Or face a zillion pound fine Cheers Martin

who else is showing their knees if its nice? Yes, shorts, as long as it isn't pelting with rain. Cheers Martin

As above, normal trousers are fine (although my wartime dated Swedish trousers are cut in a very similar cut to bergehosen including the taper). You c...

Great, thanks. Like Ade, I'd be happy to help out with gate duty, lugging stuff around etc. Cheers Martin

Yes, the prospect is utterly dismal. The MacDonalds in Dartford is quietish at 4.30 but a scene of seething hell by 5pm. I can't even begin to imagine...

I'm sure a gate party would be fun, but with more than three cars it'll back up into that huge queue of traffic on the A2. I suppose we could camp in ...

Ditto, on previous occasions I've usually aimed for 4.00 to 4.30 to minimise the horror of M1, M25 and Dartford crossing in the Friday afternoon rush ...

It'll be good to see you back. Your old MG34 was also a thing of beauty. Cheers Martin

Early in the war you can also get kinky black leather ones. I went for green, it just seemed more useful and generic (and it blends in much better...

I am planning on thinning down my kit so may even be putting mine up for sale before long. Do you need some space for your Napoleonic camp followers...

The assault bag really is a load of crap, it is only useful with a British mess tin inside unless you don't mind all your stuff getting squashed. It i...

wearing them on the o ring of the y straps is an interesting concept, I just assumed they were only either worn on the a frame/bread bag. Well it dep...

I wear mine all the time, I keep my sandwiches in it during the day and cook my tea in it at night. On my Y straps I either loop it through the O rin...

Just wish I'd done my research first and got it right the first time. tbh I'm not sure it is something which would have been easily researched anyway...

The all-in-one stick grenades will fit in your gas mask tin, unless it is full of water bottles and chocolate like mine, the ones which take Mark V in...

Yes, the US kit would be good for Kasserine. It is certainly possible to get to UCAP on the train (a couple of people did it for Crete) but if there i...

Well, my DAK jacket has been hanging outside since February and I do believe it has faded ever so slightly. I shall bring it in this weekend to try ou...

Hello and welcome, As above, your best bet if you are after a lift is to post in the relevant game threads. People travel from all over the country t...
