Camper & Bus 8/9/10 Aug (Photo heavy)

OK, 1stly a big thanks to Andy @physiopro for organising the the event, then another for organising the TLB crew into some form of order.
The photos don't do it justice and (aside from the rain) it was a very well organised and run weekend, congrats to Camper & Bus (IPC Media) for the event, you do feel a little sorry for them when there's a queue of 50 complaining that it's rained!
However TLB made a huge effort which went down a storm with the organisers and we have been promised pride of place at future IPC Media events if we so wish.
Apologies if a few of these piccies have already been posted elsewhere but the majority will be new.
THE TBR/TLB CAMP.

 

THE TLB LINE UP SAT:-

 

More of the same:-

 

Unlike the DATC Show where there were only 18 Bays in total (inc ALL General Camping) here it was Bay Central!
The General Camping was ram packed full, here's a selection (but not all ) of those we saw.

 

More from General Camping.


Some people can paint Black, @Keith.H, I still prefer yours though.


There were an awful lot of cross-dressers but then they ARE the best Bay to have.

 

Yet more! I'm pretty sure The Bays outnumbered The Builders Vans.
e

 

And it continues, there were literally hundreds! Killed my legs walking up and down dozens of times.

 

cool pic's looks like it was good and chilled.

 

I wish I'd had some sort of Latebay calling card to put under the windscreens, I made a dozen or so last year but I'd have needed a sack full for this lot.
Yet more.

 

More Bays than the Coastline.

 

(insert witty your own comment here, I've run out)

 

i notice a J reg xover...... mmmmm

 

We were getting all Bayed out by this stage.........

 

Finally for the hardy souls who (like us) have persevered to the end, here's a collection of the more interesting stuff, bays and not.
BTW NONE of this stuff was in the show, I figured that everyone would photo the show so I'd go "off piste" to see what I could find.

On of those Coffin Trailers, done nicely though.


Proof that money does not buy taste.


A particularly robust set of home made bumpers.


Welding by @poptop2 ?


Nice T25, couldn't decide if it was a synchro or just chunky tyres.


Gotta love this (also gotta love the aroma coming from within )


See this done before but not seen this particular one before, highly impractical but still fun.


Big Daddy

 

that welding is awesome! still at least the van is being used i guess, i love the two-tone stuff on the t4 but the van itself is a bit erm....

 

You didn't think you'd get away with just one post did you?

Nice Karmann Gispy.


With extraordinary wheels.


One for @paradox


And one for @hailfrank


Not seen a Cheetah before, looked good.


One for @Barneyrubble


Having owned 2, I have a dislike for LTs but they're beginning to grow on me again.

 

Thought this was excellent for a T25...

and I loved this split

 

it's a good job the t25 with black front isn't a C reg.

 

And finally........................

Murphy actually behaving himself. Just after this he got a whiff of sausages and snapped the ground anchor in two!


The crowd eagerly awaits the arrival of the Flying Beaver.


And finally, IMHO the most pointless vehicle of the day.




A pick up with limited height, limited length, limited access, no drop sides, a horrible body kit and all in metallic poo brown.
