Thank you glad you liked the video. Enjoy your wine.
This was on again today, I went along as I did last year, very enjoyable and I can't wait for 2018 with it returning once again
+Mile Cross Junction Good to hear you enjoyed the event, Unfortunately I was unable to get there this time.
mollsmyre Well there is always 2018
Mile End Park there's actually one next year (2017) that's calibrating Stanhopes 100th birthday
Excellent record of the event Tommy, and great to see a WW1 tank out, don't think I've ever seen one in action before. Fingers crossed I can make it to the 2018 event! :-)
Thanks Alan. The tank is a bit of a brute.It would be bad enough being at War without being stuck in one of ttem
that tank is only half as long as it should be, not even a tadpole. great event lho would have loved to be there
+tandem compound Thanks for the info, It was a very enjoyable event.
+tandem compound The tank was used along with the War Horse replica as the tank used in the BBC WW1 Series Our World War
Interesting video, thank you.
Thanks,Glad you found it interesting.
Hah... Grandad Abbott was in a first generation tank, 'Tank 5' in Germany just after WW1. We have a nice pic of him and his mates lounging about infront of it.

Thank you very much.Glad you enjoyed the video.Unfortunately I have no information about the WW1 tank so I have no idea if this was the same one that appeared in the movie.
