Anything South East

To celebrate 10 years since the formation of the Bongo Fury owners club, Sunday 24th February 2013 has been designated as National Bongo Day. What we have in mind is a series of events in various locations across the UK & Ireland where Bongonauts can get to meet each other and perhaps have a Sunday lunch.

Anything South East

We're in Tunbridge Wells and I seem to have seen hundreds of Bongos since we bought ours last year. Would love to hook up for an afternoon with fellow Bongolians to share tips & a coffee etc!

Henfold Lakes near Dorking was suggested, but there wasn't much of a response. See this thread

We're in Rochester so not far from you. Doesn't seem to be much happening in the South East so we're going to the New Forest Bongo Day meet. Hope to see you there, or if not meet up some other time. :-D

Would there be any interest in a Pub lunch along the A259 East Sussex, thinking specifically of "The Smugglers Rest" at Peachaven, they have a couple of tables for 6 still spare tonight;

We would need to be quick as they do get busy on a Sunday, responses in the next few days or we will be heading down to the New Forest!

Well no takers, so I think we will call that a No then ;-)
We will be down in the New Forest, provided we get the Van back, still in the garage but they are just replacing the cam belt after having cleaned up all the oil and replacing the seals cam seals etc.! No water pump needed, so should be back on the road Monday/Tuesday, time to give it run before heading down to Hampshire!
