If you are going away somewhere and don't mind meeting up with other Bongo owners or if you've been somewhere & want to tell us about it & stick up your photos, put the details here.

Yes many thanks Ian & Marianne for yet another lovely BF SS meet!
Really nice to get together with so many friends and to introduce my son Phil to the BF community!

We had an excellent gathering as well at Deerleap to remember Edna, lets hope the weather can be as nice for the one in Leyland as well. Once again thanks to all for the wishes and support that you all gave us over the weekend.

Excellent meet. Loved the meet and greet. Glad that is becoming a regular feature. Breaks the ice lovely.

Great site Ian. Would defo like to go back there again. Would like to explore Glasto a bit more than I did. Also it was lovely at Deerleap, very moving! Hunters Lodge did us proud, albeit in not as pretty a room!

I moved on to a campsite in the Blackdown Hills near Taunton for Sunday night. Lovely site. And then on Monday Roger at Solar Camper Solutions fitted my solar panel for me while I went for a long walk along the River Tone. Only a diesel heater to go now, and that can wait for a few months!

No photos I'm afraid of the meet itself, but I did take some from the top of the Tor! Will try to upload them.

Did you Bob she is a lovely lady but her name escapes me at the moment. It may have been Christine but anyway her husband is Peter who is lovely too. They make a nice couple as you and Sue do. :D =D>

Ha ha that will teach me for assuming that pic no 5 was that of the lovely couple. The stone lady was on the entrance to a shop (she was both sides). YOu got me there Bob hahaha.
