Yorkshire Dales

To celebrate 10 years since the formation of the Bongo Fury owners club, Sunday 24th February 2013 has been designated as National Bongo Day. What we have in mind is a series of events in various locations across the UK & Ireland where Bongonauts can get to meet each other and perhaps have a Sunday lunch.

We have been allocated the lower field. Defo grass. If the kids have Wellies, bring them. There was a huge puddle last week at the rear of the field. Fab to play in. :lol:
Remember, they have a hot menu available for all.

Off to blow up the balloons now.

All prep'd and ready to roll for tomorrow. :D I along with Emma (Little Legs) have made some Bongo badges to wear if you would like one. These are just for identification of who are Bongo Peeps whilst around the Farms Activities. It could make it a little easier to spot who is from the Bongo Event. I will hand these out with your Bumper Sticker on arrival. Could you also sign the card on arrival so that I (being a tad dippy) don't forget :lol:


Hope everyone has a fantastic day where ever you go.

Please remember your Camera's. The more pics the better.

Have fun :wink:

Nice to catch up with those "old" regulars, even more so to meet the new members joining the bongo crowd. Quite cold today but well worth the drive out. And it was positively tropical when the sun came out.
Cheers chell for organizing this one, and little legs for the bongo badge.
Roll on warmer weather when ice cream is more appropriate.

Thanks for organising well worth the trip.
Not sure the rope swing did my elbow any good though, it's bloody sore at the moment.
Drugs and alcohol should sort it out.

Many thanks to Chell for her organisation.

Thank you to you all. As others have said, it was really good to meet new people and catch up with the long termers. I for one am very grateful to all considering the bitter cold weather we endured. Some travelled from far and wide, some very local. It's great to see that all are equally as mental, approachable and fun to be with. :D

Here's hoping for more day meets where we can share tips, trips and new locations. (Hint get your fingers out).

I have only a few pics, can I get them off my phone? Can I thump. Best ask the kids then :roll:

Happy Birthday Bongo Fury from all within the Blingo Squadron =D>
