Beamish is a great place, sadly a very long way from us, and Senior Management has us at a wool show in Builth Wells. 8)

Shame Mike, I don't understand the logic in people not going to meets especially potentially one as good as this, I learned more about my bongo in the early days by attending meets, getting great advice and seeing other bongos, and made some good friends, however in bongo land in Scotland it is exactly the same the laird and myself posted several meets in Scotland with little or no response, we are also members of wild camping for motorhomes as we both now have motorhomes, average attendance per meet around 50 vehicles, several of them bongos, also a few exbongo fury members, and exbongo owners, plenty of bongos still going about here but none ever post in the Scottish section of this website, it's such a shame.

Not one Bongo .. but a realy good meet .. about ten families .. had a chat .. kicked the some tyres .. looked into others motors ..

Considering it's nearly £50 entrance for a family into the Museum (valid for a year .. great if you are local) .. not a bad FREE day out for those who came ..

Info here with some pics and drone (Ariel) footage ..
