Well we went and we surfed our way into the event and there was a torrent running through our part of the camp on friday nite :roll: ..... The weather was terrible but cleared up on sat Just enough for My ULtra Vw feature Woo Hoo :D After over 2 hrs of cleaning she was ready :wink:

Also thanks to all the early bayers I met over the weekend Agc Grazy top bus lad :wink: Ego Graham L and all the others i staggered into :oops:

What i will say is that the majority of peeps i spoke too said that If you had to buy tickets on the gate alot of folk wouldnt have gone due to the down pour on friday

But im glad i got there and back

And SOMEONE please tell me you got some piccys of the Just Kampers girls Esp the ginger one Sammy is her name I was dribbling :oops:

I would of but Helen wouldnt stop punching me.....

Best things to come out of there tent all weekend....
 
great to see the van gadget. unfortunately i didnt get to chat as you seemed unsurprisingly to have a queue of people asking questions! i would have been the one drooling and taking loads of pics every time i saw it! :D. didnt get any pics of the lovely ladies. did notice this afternoon while looking round with the otherhalf that one her thigh length socks was higher than the other. i asked the girlfriend if i could offer to sort the problem!, but was denied the chance!! great weekend though despite the mud!
 
I guess Vanfest might well have been unstuck financially had they not been sold up in advance .....

Good to see everyone, on Saturday afternoon when the EB area was at its fullest some passers-by commented "Wow, this is a cool area!" That was nice to hear :)

Vanfest was still very busy and there was plenty for the crowds. I bagged a couple of good deals and my mate scored a corker with a Westy stool for £60

I saw one 72 Westy sell for £10,000 and another mate of mine bought a 63 11 window as a project for £7000, so the market is still moving despite what some say.

If anyone wants some mud, I have plenty btw :lol:

Looks like the weather was OK in the end judging by the pictures!

I felt for you guys when I was on my way to work on Friday night shift and it was hammering it down here in Tamworth :shock: ...Then I was gutted on Saturday when I woke up and the Sun was shining and I wasn't there! :roll: At least the sun was shining for me when I took the For Sale pictures of my Bus in the afternoon...... :cry:

Gutted..... :roll:

Hi Guys, lovely pics of the vans, great to see ours on EB at last and in such cool company 8)

Thanks for a great weekend and for sqeezing us in to the EB camp. Waking up on Sunday in the mist, surrounded by early bays was totally magic, one for the memory banks, you even managed to add the sound of gentle snoring gorrillas, amazing!

We have our tickets booked for Brighton Breeze so please count us in.
PS I promise not to drink so much red wine next time :oops:

Can't wait 'til the next one
