so another year another vwaction :cool:,
after the great time and attendance of last year i`m putting a post up here,
to see if anyone is up for another great weekend of club camping, cocktails, shots, fajitas and club bbq?
as per the norm with all vwaction events plenty to see and do from strip action to camping cook-offs and a whole lot more inbetween.
it`s always great to see new faces at shows so if you fancy it put your name down and if we have enough interest i can sort out a club camping spot :cool:
-
is that a weekend earlier this year :huh:
-
No same time as last year.
Stick my name down :smiley: Hopefully the weather is better this year :lipsrsealed:
-
she is going to kill me, :rolleyes:
Stick me down :grin:
-
Ah its only 2 weekend shows so far :wink: Bugjam as well :grin: :grin: :grin:
-
nope, wont be doing bugjam if doing action.
dont forget I gotta move house too :laugh:
-

Yeah would have been loads better than last time in that horrendous rain, polystyrene cups and no space to move.

Not sure anyone has really done anything about club camping.
I am planning on doing a day at e38 and a day at this. Got to take some photos of shiny cars :grin:

I will see if I can get a small spot for us then, although a little late now I suppose.. Purely for the convenience of being closer to stuff. How are you planning your weekend, are you sleeping over at edition or action, which day is which?
Anybody else want to come to this, it is a great show day and night and could really do with few more from the forum to boost numbers?
-
Tickets sorted... I have just called regarding Club Camping, they said they would really like to give as spot as usual but sadly our numbers are too low at present, we need at least 10 cars to warrant it. I have until Thursday morning to get the numbers up!
-
Tobz and Andy might be going, well told me they were but hey thats not a given.
Try a PM
I aint going.
-
Hey Len
I'm afraid that's a negative on both counts now.
I'm only just back from a holiday in Cornwall and also have a family party to attend on Saturday.
Andy doesn't currently have a motor and has to work on Saturday to cover somebody else who is attending.
Sad times :(
-
4 months to get 10 names......This is going well

Shame, was great last year but sh*t happens. I will miss those that made it last year but there's plenty of other opportunities in the future.

Well if I was then I am always naughty because I never change!
