All new and exciting for us: we're new Bongo owners, off for our first night away in it tomorrow night (in north Wales) and then planning to stop off at the Grosvenor on our way back on Sunday if there's still room for us?

Good to hear. Not currently a Bongo owner but I've been lurking here for a while with a view to buyng one. This would be an ideal chance to see a good few together.

Re: 10th anniversary gathering near Chester
Thanks to all who were at this event. I went along with my 8 year old as a potential Bongo owner and it was fantastic to see so many great vans (and everyone different), everyone was really helpful and chatty and I learned a great deal. It's helped me to decide that the Bongo is for us. Now just need to find one with the spec I need!!.  
 
Thanks Again
Dave

Hi Trish & All!
First of all, "thank you" Trish for suggesting the venue (brilliant choice) and organising the Meet. It was a "Sunday with a difference" which is excellent in my book. Lovely to meet and re-meet those who attended & look forward to meeting you all again.
Has to be said I have returned home with a "list"....neon lights? complete revamp of kitchen? bling? reverse the rear seat? sort out sleeping arrangement? 'fridge instead of cool box?.....so the "list" continues. Have MOT next month so will see what comes of that and fingers crossed that I will be able to shorten the list.
Well done everyone!

Re: 10th anniversary gathering near Chester
Ditto. A really great day and big thanks to Trish, who it was lovely to meet. As some already know, I've been through the wars a bit, and off the circuit, so was a bit apprehensive. I needn't have been, and it was great to see so many old friends as well meet some new ones, and I feel shedloads better than I did this morning. Plus, I got a free diagnosis of a leaking radiator from Dave, Dabs and Steve........which was nice.wooden wheel wrote:A big thankyou to Trish for organising this meet![]()

Mr & Mrs Alant54 were there and must get a mention as, along with BigDaddyCain, they are amongst the oldest members of the burgeoning Bongo Tribe. Great to see them there, even though Bongoless.

Well done Trish

Re: 10th anniversary gathering near Chester
Who's Blobber? Maybe Alan will know  
  Muchas apologias Alan for failing to spot you weren't on the list. Certainly didn't miss you on the day though  
Thing is Dabs, I ran out of coolant mix for topping up on the way over so had to improvise with another fluid. Damn, forgot to warn you about that

Re: 10th anniversary gathering near Chester
Nice to meet up with people today, so thanks to Trish for organising the meet.
Sorry we had to dash early - our lives are ruled by a 6 and 9 year old at the moment!!!! Can't let our social life get in the way of theirs!
 
Cheers
