National Bongo Day - South Queensferry

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.

Hi
Sorry to sound a bit dim, but is this Queensferry Scotland or North Wales?

When you come off the forth road bridge heading south you take the slip road left,top of hill roundabout
First exit left carry on 150 yards or so roundabout first left.down hill to bottom then turn right along cobbled road keep going for about 3/4mile and hey presto beauty in your eyes.car park in your left which sits between both bridges .ill be there about 9,30 on the hawes in is opposite the enlighten boat house ,think we're gonna get a great turn out
Jim in the box wondered if we should book for soup and rolls ?any one interested or just bring yer ane?

The idea would be to be able to meet up with some other fellow owners, have a bit of a chin wag, have a brew, maybe go for a walk if some some folk want to, we could have a 'spot of lunch' in The Hawes Inn if folk fancied it. Open to suggestions really....... :D

It would be great to see you. How is the new addition to the family? Hope you are all well.
