Looking forward to meeting new Bongo friends at Seaton.

Will be interesting to travel on the Electric Tramway, as the last time I did so was when they were here in Eastbourne, before being sold off and taken to Seaton in the 70's!!!

Bongo festing ettiquette???

Whilst members who regularly use the forum also have contact with many outside the forum, what is the ettiquette on these types of meeting????

We attended the National meeting for the 1st time this year, an duly noted that many owners displayed their forum names in the windscreen. I am prepared to do this in September, but I do not know anyone who is attending.

I admit that we are planning to use the meet as a base for visiting our beloved Westbay.

But we would be around on the Sunday.

Any advice please

We hadn't thought about displaying our "Bongo name" at Stourport but it did seem an obvious idea once we had met people with their "proper names" and now can't place them on the forum!!! Ian has sent out a list of those attending Seaton but without their forum names so we are going to be in the same situation again! Perhaps we could all agree to put our forum names in the windscreen?

I've got a particularly interesting turn on this - one of the surnames on the list is my sons' surname. It's an unusual surname and the only people I had have ever come across with it were my ex-in-laws. To my knowledge my ex-husband didn't have any paternal relations, but you never know

Bertie Bus,

From the Delegate List we are the ones from East Sussex (top of the right hand section), most people spot us because of our 'avatar' but we will be displaying our forum name from now on at various bongo meets as well.

We will be arriving lunchtime on Friday, looking forward to saying hallo.

Hi Dago (Peter),

pretty much got you guys sussed from Stourport, as you were parked in a diagonal from us. we are the only ones from Aylesbury on the list, so we will be pretty easy to find.

I am looking forward to meeting everyone, mainly cos I'm quite sad and don't have any real friends!!

We put our name in our windscreen at Stourport as did some others. We will do the same thing again. I agree with other comments here it is useful to display your forum name.

Dun 'urt do it?

See you there! We've also got a new battle flag - quite an appropriate one . . . and a long pole to fly it from too!

Great news Folks, just checked the directions to the south west fest and "thank the lord" or maybe IAN, but we have to drive past a CIDER farm to get to the camp HOORAH
