Ello. Meeting Sunday? Cruise to the Somerford? Anyone out there?

Its usually the first Sunday of each month at the bakers from midday, so assume nothings changed, I should pop down. Weathers looking better that day T:

Yeah. Was going to drop in but not seen any activity on here for a while so wondered if anything was happening. :*

Good meet today and plenty of vans turned out despite the drizzle, was a good excuse to sit in the vans though and have a good nose at what people have been building, and also deafen a few victims in mine! Good to see you all T:

We're still alive and kicking - Martin (Bullfrog) has had his mind on other things as his wife Carol is ill.

Next meet is 6th April at the Bakers - hopefully it will be less wet!

Next meet usual time and place at the Bakers Arms on 6th April

First Sunday of the month at the Bakers Arms car park.

A really good turn out today. Not been along for a few months so good to see some new vans / faces.

 

[mac the knife]

My first meet, only had the van for 2 weeks newbie at this. Nice to meet some friendly people with some good ideas.
THANKS FOR THE WARM WELCOME.

 

[Minty4]

Darn - i missed it !

What time do people meet?

I currently drive a vw passat estate - I may park around the corner and walk

 

[Uncle Russ]

Minty, usually 12 O'clock onwards.

Was really nice to see a broad and innovative range of layouts in the back of the vans today. Of the 30 or so vans I saw only half of them were the standard 3/4 R&R and cupboards.
Loads of good ideas for those with blank canvasses...

 

[Minty4]

Perfect - thats what i need.

I am actively on the hunt for a base van.
Something with a good paint job, body and engine.

Let me know if you know of any!

I have spent hours online looking at different layouts.

Decisions decisions!

 

[Uncle Russ]

You'd have been like a kid in sweet shop today!

Looking online is one thing, but seeing how it works in the here and now, plus all the other little ideas hidden away is a totally different (and much better) experience. Not to mention the creators explaining how it was done and why.

Take your time and don't let your heart rule your head...

 

[Minty4]

Im trying I promise.

I do like to take my time with things and sometimes over think ways of working.

I am looking forward to getting a van, the majority on ebay are all up country.

Wont be long i hope!

How many are in the T4 club ?

 

[Minty4]

Thoughts please

2) http://www.preloved.co.uk/adverts/show/110111178/vw-transporter-t4-19tdi.html

Number 2 is more my price range.

(apologies if this is not the right forum but as its local, let me know.)

Cheers
