lol  :laugh:  
How come it's over two days?
As for me...well, I'm in Lincs, just outside of Peterborough and I've had the beetle for 6 years. I've always loved vw's (for as long as I can remember!) and had a couple of mk2's.

Where are you guys based? Are you all over the UK or are you mainly mids based if you're having a meet in Leicester??
