    Yes good weekend great display with the ACA [ment to ask what does it stand for?] Northover makes a great focal point even more that the tea cosy. lots of interest, nice to take part in the closing ceremony. Thanks all.

    On behalf of the Crich Events Team, I'd just like to pass on a big thank you to all those who came to the event this weekend. We had one of our most successful 40s events ever; lots of hard work, and a lot of fun.
    It was great to catch up with you all again, and I'm looking forward to coming out to play at the NYMR event in October.

    Hi Steve. Yes it's me, Adrian. "Roberts the bob" was my Grandad's nickname when he was a corporal in the Home Guard - 2nd Altrincham Battalion, Cheshire Regiment. He was a small, enormously strong man with a jaunty walk (bobbing presumably!) I thought it a fitting name to use.
