.... I thought Dorset was in the South Wessex Section! Or should I be elsewhere? Though I see this post was 3 years ago.

Good luck waiting for some thing to happen in Dorset, I have tried to arrange a few day meets, but no interest.

Hope you enjoy your bongo.

Let me explain, back then Dorset had it's own section. Things changed and the Wessex section was born :wink:

Greetings all

Poole based Bongo with the rear seats out and a home built rear interior. It scratches through the MOT every year with the odd bit of welding so it will keep the grin factor going for a few more years yet. Mainly used as base for photography and walking with the odd weekend away

I will try to get to any meets now I have a bit of time :D

Cheers

You have not had much luck with Winniebongo this year Carole. Although this has been the summer where a converted land rover expedition camper would have better suited most of the mud wallows :twisted:

This is the first year that the South West Bash has been my last camp of the season. Unless something amazing turns up, I am retiring the beastie to a day van until spring, or of course National Bongo Day. Although being optimistic I have just bought a heater that goes on the gas cooker so at least I can brew up in comfort if needed.
