Portsmouth Dragon Boat Festival 2018
Posted by Mark | Filed under Blog, News, Next events
Last weekend was a blast, with the Abingdon Air and Country Show, and the St Mary’s Church Community Fayre. With all the sun and the long days I don’t think we have fully recovered yet.
However there is no time to sit 
back on our laurels, as this Sunday we will be at the Portsmouth Dragon Boat Festival, being held at Lakeland, North harbour. As last year it is only on for the one day, and with archery from the Scouts, food and drink stalls, inflatable attractions as well as the dragon boat racing it will no doubt be a great day out for the whole family. Why not come along cheer for some of the teams, and have some Fun.

The days and months are just flying past again. We have our toe in the door of May, and are booked up for every weekend.

There will be static ground displays, arts and crafts stalls, a food and drink area, fairground rides, classic cars, Hot Air balloons, as well as military displays. Not forgetting some great air displays from a multitude of aircraft, including a Catalina, Antonov 2 and many more.
Then as always on the first May bank holiday Monday we will be at St Mary’s Church Community Fayre. This is always a great day out with it beer tent arena displays arts and crafts, fun fair rides, live music and much, much more. All contained in the grounds of St Mary’s church Fratton Portsmouth. The event starts at 10am and closes at 4 pm.

Down time for part of the team
Posted by Mark | Filed under Blog, News
Being the Christmas period, a tad cold for
most clients and as we have been working hard, we thought we might make the most of the down time and have some R & R, prior to the next set of events in the New Year. Also as we work with laser weapons we naturally thought of shooting, and took advantage of the time to get some shotgun action in. So despite the bad weather we took off early through sleet and snow to get to our destination nice and early. Arriving early we had a coffee, the off to collect some ammunition and to the first shooting location. Then it was lunch and off to the second location. We really had a great day thanks to Mr Steve P, Mr Ben P, and their family, hosting William and myself, on their family land. Really looking forward to another session soon!

Bratton at War 2017
Posted by Mark | Filed under Blog, News, Next events
With September looming ever closer, so does our last public event for 2017. On Saturday 23 and Sunday 24 September we will be at the “Bratton at War 2017”. Being held at BA13 4TT, just off the B3098 near Bratton in Wiltshire, the event is run by the “Wiltshire Home guard” (a living history group) and the Wiltshire MVT (Military Vehicle Trust). It is a step back in time with living history exhibits and demonstrations by re enactors, vintage military vehicles from both sides of WW2, including everything from Jeeps to tanks of all sorts. Music, Dance, Food, and a host of VW and other camper vans. In addition to this there will be trade stalls and entertainment for the whole family including Battlefield South. For those wishing to stay for the whole week end there is camping available and entertainment on the Friday and Saturday evening including a bar. For prices, pitches and information please contact the event organisers. For day visitors entrance is £5 for Adults, and £3 for Children, OAP’s and those in period costumes. There is plenty of parking which I believe is free. The whole event is non profit making and proceeds will go the Wiltshire Air ambulance. So if you come along you will be helping a great cause, possibly learning about the life and times of WW2 as well as having fun.
