IF you don't get your bongo back in time just turn up in anything available. Being Bongoless from time to time happens to us all, I turned up at my first Bongo meet in my Jeep Cherokee as my local auto electricians were still faffing about trying to sort out my electrics at the time (failed).

Word of warning to anyone planning on using the A81 from Glasgow to get out to Aberfoyle on Sunday.
The road is closed for resurfacing just before the turn-off for Gartmore. You'll need to head off on the A811 through Buchlyvie, Arnprior, Port of Menteith and then back to Aberfoyle.

Only problem that I have had was that my ABS warning light was staying on when I took my Bobgo for a spin to check that everything was ok. Checked the brake light bulbs, no joy. Then took the rear nearside wheel off and tried back the cable to the bodywork in case it was being fouled by the wheel. This seems to have cured the problem for the moment so here's hoping that everything will be ok for tomorrow.
