A good show I thought and a little biiger than last years.

Nice to see Coco's truck sporting a FOG dangly, and a few of the other trucks I recognised fron GAWXO's farm days. The yellow Toyota trayback (for sale I belive) is one of the GLASS guys I go laning with.

I achieved my goals with regards to renewing my TOR subscription and GLASS membership and cought up with the BORC team (first championship round in April)

Another task I gave myself was to discus wich bumpers with different fabricators - I think I found one and discussions at the show were favourable. I'll be arranging a meeting at there workshops soon to fine tune some requirements.

It's amazing who you meet at these shows, not only FOG members but GLASS people, MSA radio people, rally marshals, the guy I met at the TOR photo shoot...

Oh, and thank you 4x4 Chrissy for the embarasing moment in the cafeteria - goodess knows what she's planning for our next encounter

Good show

just trying to think where on the net i had seen that ka conversion before and it was on a play day site! (http://www.korc.co.uk/)

Well, was there, saw coco's truck, well impressed, was gonna say hello but his truck scared me off and he was talking to someone people. I did feel a bit emasculated in a sea of giant trucks compared with my as yet stock LWB. Im gonna have to do something about that. Then when I went to the winch shop looking for a 12000lbs'er he kept trying to fob me off with 9500lbs'er cause he didnt have any 12000lbs left. So I refused to be fobbed off and when his back was turned I told my friend to get me outta here!

Was a good show, I did feel that it was LR biased though unless looking for 4x4 equipment. Had a chat with the guy from rough country shocks in the toilets though (dont ask) and as usual I didnt take enough cash with me and not enough of the stalls took credit cards so I didnt buy anything of note, a couple of recovery hooks and a sturdy little axe to make kindling with, a CB bracket and a Mic bracket. A fairly disappointing haul for a kid in a candy shop.

Hope everyone else had a great day though.

Good day too, loads of stuff for Landies and Zuks but TBH was half expecting that.

Nice to meet couple of the guys, think I should get an award for the muddiest Fronty and possibly the muddiest truck there

Any of you guys driving the White Sport Next time stop n say Hi

Bought a pair of spots and that was it, was on the hunt for a suitable snorkle but no luck

Did go past Coco's Fronty twice, seemed to be deserted and didn't see anyone I recognised from piccies on the forum.

Loved the Ka, it was SWMBO wants her Tigra done the same
