More details on this. On arrival each occupant will be issued with a "meal ticket" for 1 free visit to the Saturday evening bbq.
Each Bongo will also be issued with a raffle ticket. First prize £100 of vouchers to spend at Bongobits, 2nd prize a filter set, plus lots of other give-aways.
Draw followed by barbecue 6pm Saturday evening.
There will also be keenly-priced breakfasts available on Sunday morning.
Many thanks to Mark & Chris at Bongobits, and Tim (site owner) for sorting this out.

By the way, due to late cancellations, there are still places available for this event. So if you want to make a late decision to come along, phone me on 0114-2376627 before 7pm tonight.
We also have some electric hook-ups available again, so if you want to upgrade, talk to me on arrival.
We aim to be there for 12 noon Friday. See you there!
NEWS FLASH !

That's a good idea, Crazy. I'll see if I can locate the Christmas lights in the attic. It looks as though the Bongomaster has been as good as his word and has organised good weather! Ian, if I give you my holiday dates for next year can you book good weather for them too please?

Blast....missed the 1900 deadline for upgrading to a hookup.
Still as we haven't got a hook up on the Bongo or a lead I suppose it doesn't really matter!!!!
I'm doing (another) night watch tonight so will probably be setting off down the M25/M3/A303 car parks about 1400/1430.
Hope that I don't miss the official switch on of Crazy's cider tent illuminations!! Who is the celebrity????
See you tomorrow.
PS If anyone wants an alarm call between now and 0700 tomorrow morning just let me know!!

Alarm call at 7am? Too late for us - it's 3.45am and we are just setting out! This time of day (night) should be banned! See you there!

May I thank Ian most sincerely for all his hard work & efforts over a really brilliant weekend. (He did state that this was to be a chill-out weekend), but as ever he was on the go the whole time!
Bongobits, may I also thankyou for providing the evening Barbie & raffle prizes, as well as the gifts for all whose bongo's were parked up.
We were lucky enough to do rather well on the prizes and will be in touch !
Thanks again.
Dago

Big thanks again to Ian and Marianne for organising a fun weekend at Seaton. And to Bongobits for their generous donation of prizes, gifts and BBQ food.
It was good to meet new and old freinds. The weather was glorious and the view over the Axe staggering.
Cheers. Here's to the next Bongo meet. And long may they continue.
Tim and Family

Another great weekend

Great pictures Dago, looks like everyone had a good time. Wish we could have made it, but living afloat means alot of upkeep on the boats (our 2 week annual holiday starts this Saturday in wetdock, painting the boats

)
Hoping to make it to more bashes next year and give the bongo a good time
