Vanfest

If you are going away somewhere and don't mind meeting up with other Bongo owners or if you've been somewhere & want to tell us about it & stick up your photos, put the details here.

So the VDubbers were friendly towards you then? I have always taken my VW Golf at those events to be on the safe side!

I joined the Glos DA birthday meet weekend at Welland, Malvern last weekend.

I was the only bongo there - even though I was told about it by a fellow bongo owner.

There were only 3 trailer tents there - including mine.

There were only 3 other tents!

There were loads of motorhomes and millions (well seemed like millions) of twin-axled caravans.

Felt a bit lonely.

The entertainment was fantastic though!

We had a trailer tent a few years ago. Very good if you have the space to store it.
