IOW August Bank Holiday

Post by balmy » Wed Aug 10, 2011 7:03 pm

So who's going? :D

Fruity, Barmy, Norway Truimph and myself will be coming over late Saturday afternoon. I've booked the campsite today for the SW 3 - same one as the Hampshire branch -

"Can I ask how you found out about this campsite/" asked the man on the phone.

"It was recommened by someone who's staying that same weekend" I replied.

"Would you like to camp next to them?"

"No thank you!" :D

(much laughing down the phone ensured) :lol:

As it was he couldn't get us near each other anyway. Pitches where very limited so book soon if you want to help take over the campsite with '70's tin. :roll: The hotel where Norway is staying is also nearly full as I did try booking us all in there too.

Wait till you see it-I've done a few 'improvements'.

It's looking wicked-slammed to the ground with 15", Matt black paint with orange and red flames over the bonnet! Just doing the interior with brown button back dralon!

You'll love it I'm sure........... :) :) :)
