Anyone know of an "off-road" day or club offering such near to Bristol. I have never done this before, so would need some guidance on the day ideally. I am considering the local clubs, but would like some personal advice from your experience.
What things do I need to have for a first venture (I have the land rover already!!)
Cheers,
Frazer

A sence of humour.
Make sure any toolbox, jack, etc are secure. Vehicle battery secure (a legal requirement anyway, but not in the MoT). Fuel tank between 1/2 and 3/4 full. I've seen low-mounted towballs and trailer lighting sockets get a hammering.
Check how you can secure a tow-rope.
In my experience, the courses have various options, and need not be too demanding. But over the day they deteriorate. Arrive early, and you have the chance to have a look, maybe ride with an experienced driver.
Sites vary, and I'd be inclined to avoid somewhere notorious for mud.
Which reminds me, take a pair of good boots.
