Bongo Fury

We have just returned home after a very happy time in Looe this weekend. Nice sunny weather, lovely countryside, a super site and great company, what more could you want ?

A big thank you to Ian for organising the meet , Kirsty (on her trusty bike) for getting us all installed in the right place and not forgetting Lene and Stephen who run the site , they were amazing !!



Dudley and Ann

What a smashing site. it was a bit of a long drive down to Looe but well worth the effort, Nice to see Jannervanner (Dave) on his home ground, he has pestered us for months and months that we should visit, so now we have maybe he will shut the flip up.
I didn't take any pics on the campsite thinking there would be loads taken by Dave and others, but did take some when we went to the EDEN PROJECT.



the scrap man


A big bee, just dont ask where the hive was.

Tropical forest was amazing but ever so hot and humid.




There was a wall covered in fridge doors.


Bigdaddy and his better half Jo decided to have a play.

great pics Dave.......Hope you enjoyed Eden project as much as we did......... Did I see blue sky in those photos...unusual for down those parts....

er er just ask bdc what liquid sunshine is.

Cheers Dave I love you tooooooooooooooooo

So glad to see you all made it home and safe.

A BIG thanks to you and Ste for coming all that way and showin off your rides

Plenty of blue skies Mike A brilliant meet, with brilliant company!

I spent most of my time fitting chrome nymberplate surrounds So like dave, didn't get a vast amount of piccies of the actual meet (plus i'd forgotten my phone charger)

We popped over to Allans gaff on the way to te meet though, and got a few piccies of their rather spiffing bongo pick up (bong-up?)

Judging by the reg plate, it's a sister vehicle to my own bongo (i forgot to ask Al if it used to be green like mine)









Hmmm HID's... (where's me screwdriver? )



Freewheeler bob'll love me for posting this!....

I'll chuck a few Eden project shots in whilst i'm here...









Strawberry tree!









Daveblueozzie and Jingle-jangle...





We found a nice little cornish rest spot on the way home...







It was great to see you all again, and great to meet a few of you i'd never met before... Sorry, but this meet is definitely going to become a regular on my meet agenda, so you are going to be stuck with me next year too!

The pleasure was all mine Dave! We'll be back next year...

Great weekend, cheers to all who made it so much fun
Here's a few more piccys of some of the walks we went on.

Thats us, although I wasn't driving at the time as I went off to Dartmouth.

Thanks for letting me know how Karen was driving though especially as I had filled the van that weekend, must have another chat about fuel economy I think.

Uh-oh... Busted!

Neil? Was yours the silver freetop that passed me and DBO on the M5? (RAP on the reg)

Great pics from everyone, I don't take many myself as so many good ones get put on the forum. I particularly appreciate all the ones of Eden as I have been there many times, and taken pics, but none as good as these - I just point and press!
It was a great meet, lovely to see so many faces I knew, and to meet some new people too. Mo

Looks like a fantastic time was had by all great photos too well done all

Goes without saying that we had an excellent time at Looe. Many thanks to Ian, Marianne, Kirsty (and her bike), the campsite team and all who attended for making it such a good 'un.

Lovely to see friends and familiar faces again, and meet some new folk.

I was another one who relied on the photographic skills of others too (although I also buried my camera in the Bongo at some point and didn't find it until I got home ). However, here's just a few ....

Sunny Looe





And a headless man in my husband's car (note the non-Bongo's in the background too)



Oh no, not headless, just uncomfortable



And very very tall



But he obviously left a little bit of his magic elbow grease behind, as look what happened when the boys got home

A great weekend, though. Looking forward to next year already

If your getting sunshine down your way when the South West meet is on then I ought to come down then to miss the rain....
