Trev. That picture of yours showing the white Bongo with rollout awning and high-level bike rack, with the colourful wind break - I reckon it passed us northbound on the M6 just north of B'ham today, Sunday, at about 6:15pm.
Very smart - anybody own up to being the owner?

Dizzy Dotz - were you near the far away corner? think I can see ours in your second pic!? We were a white Bongo next to a tree!

Had a great weekend, our daughter is very sad that we came home!

We were on the end of a row - left turn after you drive in (by static caravans) - one row over from a tap! LOL!

I can't find our van in your picture....

I didn't realise that the field would be just so big!!!!! nearly needed the sat nav to find our way back from the band!!! LOL!

Oh.
Must admit I loved my old SLR
Digital is so handy, but getting films developed is a pain in the RS

Nice mono pic Scott, I saw that sky but was too lazy to go back to the van and grab my cam. As for you stiched pic, use manual settings to keep the same exposure across the image. Sorry but I post on Amateur Photographer as well, I can't help myself.

Well, Lewboy, cracking-looking Bongo it is too.

You overtook our anonymous Vectra with speed and aplomb!

Thank you, i like it, although i was very jelous of some of the others i saw at the bash with all their graphics, bits and stuff but i still very pleased with it. I hope i was not to fast as i like to keep it to about 70mph as dont want to break it only had its since March, plus me little girl was asleep on the back seat and i was trying to be gentle.
