cutiger83 Posted July 22, 2013 Share #84 Posted July 22, 2013 Ian, Great pictures! I could not imagine seeing that many vehicles in one place. I can understand the WWI and WWII vehicles but how is it that Vietnam era vehicles are found over there? When you say the temp is 30 degrees, I assume you are saying celsius. I looked it up and that equates to 86 degrees fahrenheit. That would be like a cold front around here. We average in the mid to high 90's this time of year! In August, it will be over 100! ...Kat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Re the temperature, 30-35 C is just about has hot as it's possible to get in this country...and being an island, humidity is very high and energy sapping. I'm going to the South of France next week...it's actually been as hot/hotter here!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Welshman Posted July 22, 2013 Share #86 Posted July 22, 2013 Hi Sabrejet Great photos, I've been to this years Fortress Wales, at Caldecott Castle, and next month, I'm going to the one at Llancaiach Fawr, Nelson, 3rd and 4th, of August, did you camp out for this one. Which one in the photo was Winnie Welshman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabrejet Posted July 22, 2013 Author Share #87 Posted July 22, 2013 I was at Caldicot too. I posted a report at the time...it's in the forum's archives somewhere. I used to camp out with a bunch of Welsh lads back in the 90s but I like my creature comforts now....plus Mrs Sabrejet tends to come with me now anyway. Can't have her roughing it, can we?!
