towing for 20 odd years but now have our first motorhome.
We have a plastic covered garden marquee with a tubular metal frame. 20ft x 10ft. Frame is great but the covering is bl****dy useless in any windy conditions :Angry:. We used it as a workshop in the garden when I needed to pull the engine out of a previous range rover. Might be okay as a kitchen (if it aint windy) but NO GOOD for sleeping cadets.
hope this helps

nope completely independent but funding on the way it duos work the only thing the kids wont get is live firing of military weapons but plenty of fun
we have the sa80 replicas gas blow-back air soft thay do every thing except eject brass accurate at M and thay Handel them all the time each cadet will have his own personal weapon for use for cadet activities just cheep ones deactivated but thay can do nsp's moving with weapon the army cadets don't do that we don't sit in class rooms if Werther is good weir out every drill night petrolling am busing army cadet don't do that if Werther is good if not classroom.
i can just arrange a week end a short notes don't have to go through any one i am the boss
just Early days but geting sum help from another independent unit i isn't for the faint hearted.
but hell the scouts don't have much funding.
beg steel or borrow thats my motto its working for now
if i can buy it i will make it spent all week making training Ade's it's a lot easier now with the internet

every thing on power point and DVD
Wat do thay need a gun to hold uniform for protection from the elements helmet for there heads and cam creme once a week
fed at week ends and marched around i know their is more but thay have the biggest smiles on there faces when thay as teem achieve any thing just today
when i was walking down the road to take jay to school one of the parent's asked me Wat i had done to James :Eeek:confused i sad pardon did you swap him for a noter kid he use to be a Little Shiite not a bit of bother out of him now
that is only after three weeks::bigsmile:
