    LandyLive! Stratford-upon-Avon Racecourse 7-8 June 2014

    You'll notice your threads still here..... Dunno if it will be in an hour or so mind :D Yep, re. the pay 'n' play site, I did notice that the 'free offer' to LZ members suddenly materialised out of thin air after he'd been pulled up on it. I still think a commercial section would keep...

    LandyLive! Stratford-upon-Avon Racecourse 7-8 June 2014

    Reckon you're right “agew”, 03.53 was a bit daft. Started reading my old posts then realised I was being pilloried unfairly for past posts … so bit. Rather than just lie down and take it, decided to stand my corner. A serious question moderators - why can't you have a section for:- a)...

    LandyLive! Stratford-upon-Avon Racecourse 7-8 June 2014

    Conducted an interesting exercise tonight. I clicked on ‘My Replies’ to see what I have actually posted about on LZ over the years, the results were a revelation. Out of my 25 posts, only 4 related directly to shows I have organised over the years, and even one of those threads was a repeat...

    LandyLive! Stratford-upon-Avon Racecourse 7-8 June 2014

    Bit unfair mate. Frickley was never billed as a show, just a 4x4 market/autojumble with off-roading thrown in for good measure. That and the fact it p****d down for most of the time didn't help. I recall the course turning into a bog, which naturally did down down well with the few who ventured...

    LandyLive! Stratford-upon-Avon Racecourse 7-8 June 2014

    Well, to be honest, I didn't go along to LZ10 partly for that very reason - I didn't want to be seen as merely turning up to hand out flyers and tout for business. Now that would be taking the Mick! There is one thing posting on a forum about an event, as folk can have their say (that can be...

    Is this secret code for Landy town? I have no idea, but if it is, the answer is ... yes! BTW, wanted to get down to your LZ bash last weekend, in the end I just couldn't make it; shame! Trust it went well.

    LZ 10th Anniversary Celebratory Meet- 9/10/11th May 2014

    Couple of things ... The Landy Zone 10th Anniversary Weekend is now listed here - 4x4 Calendar . co . uk (has been for few weeks now but forgot to mention it) and I have a white 8m x 4m pop-up marquee sitting in my garage that is available over the course of the event. Cost? A big fat zero. I...

    LandyLive! Stratford-upon-Avon Racecourse 7-8 June 2014

    Haven’t been around for ages – where has the time gone this year??? Okay, I've been reading other's posts, but haven't actually posted anything myself, so here is a well-overdue update:- Back by public demand is the National 4x4 Show & British Off-Road Motorsport Show. Previously held...

    Thanks onelife, we aim to please. Oh no, that another saying ... "We aim to please, you aim too please". :D "Stressful" Bump? There just isn't time to get stressed! Most of Friday afternoon is mad, towards dusk on Friday and most of the entire evening is truly manic as folk roll in after...

    LandyLive! Stratford-upon-Avon Racecourse 7-8 June 2014

    Interesting yet constructive comments. I think the one about having 'expedition jumble' is especially a good one. From the start I decided that I wasn't going to have regular autojumble at ADVENTURE OVERLAND, there's other outlets for that, but secondhand sand ladders, roof tents, etc. could...

    LandyLive! Stratford-upon-Avon Racecourse 7-8 June 2014

    Whaddon??? Whilton Mill you mean, you're thinking of the off-road play days at Whaddon. Well you're spot on Mr.Kipper, there were teething troubles at Stratford. Of course these were far outweighed by what did go right, but of course that doesn't mean a jot if you're on the receiving end of a...

    Well folk can say what they like about me - disorganised, etc. - but nobody can say I'm not an enthusiast. Whether off-road racing, journalism or running events, I've been into the LR scene since the early 80's so have definitely our interests at heart. Moreover, myself and my team of...

    Replacement for the Defender: Eco-Carreir

    DC100 concept So, Land Rover have finally realised their radical DC100 concept, the proposed replacement for the Land Rover Defender (pictured above), did not go down too well with the buyers. As you will probably know by now, it seems they have finally ditched the idea. However, there is a...

    What is the greatest weight you've put in your landy?

    Not so much in weight, but I once crammed two armchairs into the back of a Range Rover Classic, plus the 3-seater sofa up top on two roof bars. Incredibly, when interlocked (69 position!!! :rolleyes:) with the rear seats down both chairs fitted inside and the top and bottom tailgates actually...

    The Ultimate Challenge – Around the World 4x4 Charity Drive

    Sorry, I got some of this wrong. The line … Departing at the end of this month (March) they will of course also gratefully accept any donation of whatever size towards their sizeable fuel/ferry costs. Having just spoken to one Les Carvell, the guy whose idea it was originally, it transpires...
