Right, I am well up for this but what is the latest I can send my forms off as I need to get the rangie back in working order and ready to tow the bursnter before I can 100% commit.

Brakes are no1 on the agenda, after that new air bags / coils at least then its usable.
 
Sent my paperwork off a couple of weeks ago but not heard anything back but it's early days yet!
Were really looking forward to it although it might be a bit cold camping in April but better than driving as we might be having a few shandy's in the evening!

yup mine has gone too.

with any luck we should get some information back soon.

still gutted i was not able to camp out it would have been a good laugh.
 
First and foremost, if your cheque's been cashed you're in! Nothing posted back out yet as the organisers are still sorting out what t-shirt sizes are possible - thare som BIG blokes out there!!! All will become crystal clear in due course. If you want to camp under the Landyzone banner so to speak, tell the organisers so they know how many camping pitches to allocate in one area.


The latest ...


Here’s something truly unique, something that has never been done before in 63 years.

The Heritage Motor Centre, the custodians of the first production Land Rover known to one and all as ‘Huey’ (registration HUE 166) have generously donated a ride in the front passenger seat of ‘Huey’ – at the very front of CONVOY for HEROES … and before you ask, no you can’t drive it!

This is how it will work …

Via an auction on the CONVOY for HEROES forum, you place an open bid for the ride in ‘Huey’ as it leads the attempt to break the world record on Sunday 24th April 2011 (Easter Sunday). Instructions can be found at http://h4hconvoy.myfreeforum.org/forum68.php

The auction will close on Wednesday April 20th at 6pm, thus giving the winning bidder a chance to find someone else to drive his or her own vehicle in the convoy.

To generate the maximum amount of cash, the auction is open to all-comers.

Alternatively, the winning bidder may elect to donate the seat to someone else as a present – a loved one, family member or a worthy individual perhaps, but remember this is a sixty plus year-old Land Rover so no airbags, seatbelts or padded bits. Passengers must be 12 years-old or older.

Bids will be updated daily between now and near the end of the auction, the last few hours will be updated hourly, the last 60 minutes shown as soon as they arrive.

Well, what are you waiting for? Put in a bid!!!
