History
of Hobby - When and where did you start and how did you arrive
where you are to-day?
How long
have you been involved with War & Peace and in what capacity?

I started
collecting militaria when I was very young, gathering bullets,
shrapnel and bits of crashed aircraft, and then later knives,
bayonets, air-guns and uniforms. I had a spell in the Army,
playing with the real thing, which I really enjoyed, and it
was there that I fell in love with the WWII Jeep - especially
as we had six as runabouts!! I now own my own and a Ford F8
Wireless Truck.
I joined
the IMPS after a visit to Biggin Hill, which was my first Beltring
show (near the beginning of time...!. Ed.) and I have
been a keen supporter of the show ever since. I like to do Gate
Duty as I get to meet and greet members of the public and talk
to them on their way in, checking vehicle passes and generally
Keep 'Em Rolling! It also has the added advantage of keeping
me away from people looking for volunteers to do hard manual
labour...(!!)
