Keep your eyes peeled for a white Hi Top around Livingston and give us a wave.

Quite a few Bongos were stolen in the Edinburgh area just over a year ago and in Glasgow about a month ago. It is never a good idea to give too much personal information out on an open website which anyone can read. Such information should only be sent to the person for which it is intended by using Personal messages. You can put "Message Sent" on the forum to let the person know that a message is waiting for them in their message box in case they miss the notification email sent by Bongo Fury.

Hi Laird, Frank and Alan, we are in the same area, silver over silver grey, at the opposite end from you though in Livingston, I always give the lights a flash and a wave when see any other Bongo, there are quite a few in the area now. Been lookin on here now and then for others glad to see yous here.

St John's Hospital in Livingston and back today. Did not see one Bongo but then I was in my Jeep Cherokee so I must have frightened them off. :lol: :lol: :lol:

You might have given us a heads up Tony and you could
have came round for a coffee or tea, aint seen you in ages, not to worry, hope your visit to st johns was not for anything serious. Allen n Lillian.

Dont think it was me you spoke to Laird but hard to say as i have spoke to loads of people regarding it, but ours is converted, hope for a catch up soon, the way things are going we will be able to have our own West Lothian meet : )

So long as its not Aberfoyle. The A873 from Aberfoyle towards Stirling must be the most pot holed road in Scotland. Last time I went it cost me a new ABS brake on my nearside back wheel after hitting a pot hole hidden round a blind bend. New ABS brakes aren't exactly cheap at £184.00 each (May 2011).

Got to agree Tony, my folks live near Aberfoyle, and driving there from any direction you really notice the crap roads within about 20 miles. The road from Dunblane - Doune - Thornhill - Aberfoyle is worse than the back streets of Baku.

I've been lucky to not trash any ABS sensors so far (but I do know where the worst of the pot holes are!)
