You'll be at Beltring 2001 then. . . . . . . . . . .

I think I can promise you a somewhat tatty but running under its own power
and arena circulating Canadian Ram, possibly, and unusually, with a correct
Ram turret fitted too.

Ask nicely for a ride and it can also be parked over your accommodation be
it slit trench or tent, whatever you fancy. Everything's for sale, you may
wish to purchase it and take it home as a Beltring memento.
