Weekends weather is looking really good down here. Amazing choice of timing for this year as it's been so poor up to now!

Counted 6 Bongos today, out and about!

Looking good at Winsford too for any Midlanders of NW Bongo drivers fancying an Autumnal cruise and some dodgy music when they get there tomorrow evening. 8)

Thanks very much everybody for making this northerner very welcome, I hope I can come back to the south west very soon. Cracking meet, great company, met lots of really nice peeps. Thanks for the organising Ian and Marianne and for the rendition of 'living on a prayer'! Everybody was very brave who did the karaoke. Bob for his performance and solid silver for the evening's entertainment on Sat. Kirsty and Mo for a cracking fire display on Friday night, superb. Little Lois is adorable, I wanted to take him home with me Gary and Tina! The weather was fab the whole weekend was just what was needed, the happy bongo spirit was everywhere. Hello to everybody new friends and old, great to see you again Dave and Roseanne and all of you, there's too many of you to mention, you know who you are so hope you don't mind. I never stopped talking the whole time, so sorry about that ;)

hope to see you all again soon,
Anne

THANK YOU all for making myself (Jo), Graham (husband) and Maisie (dog) feel so welcome at our first meet, we really enjoyed ourselves. The site was very good. We would like to thank the 'Bongo policeman' for lending us the figure of 8, sorry cant remember yr name (Alan i think), our 'neighbours' from Bristol for helping us put up the awning, and Paulnlol for the awning, hope you had a great birthday Paul. and also Ian and Marianne for the organising. =D>

When and where is the next one !!!!!
