    I’m thinking not as well, working Saturday won’t be worth driving down after and that makes Sunday my only day off quite precious!
    See you at TE

    My shopping list may be small but my pile of rando junk that I end up with might not be.

    The show is now half VW, half 4x4s. The 4x4s were in the main hall, so all the VW stuff was in the other halls. Alan Schofield and Kingfisher Customs were there, but the rest were all smaller traders or T6 stuff. Needless to say it didn't take that long to take it all in, but at least I got a show discount on some bits from Schofields

    Oh, and the worst cup of coffee I've ever had from the café there! I couldn't bring myself to drink it

    I must say I wasn't that impressed this year. Not much 2nd hand parts and more stalls selling tat.
    I think it's more a 4x4 show, and they've added the vw just to up the numbers.
    We did, however, have a lovely evening with @mikedjames [​IMG]

    I had a good time , and the bus got a good thrashing doing about 380 miles there and back..

    Apart from the bit where the door lock pull came off in my hand in Ians bus... then he told me it wasnt connected...


    As for the show,
    I felt the VW side was about the same.. there was tat as expected, plus a couple of proper parts places.

    The bar wasnt really crowded either, never had to queue..

    What was missing was a greater TLB contingent.. we all fitted in Ian's bus..

    All in all I got
    Two tyre levers for £12
    Two T shirts. For £10
    1.8 kg of butane in 8 cans for £10..
    A collapsible washing up bowl for £10..
    And a pair of new door roller assemblies rear and bottom front for £250.

    I feel slightly guilty for not coming along Mike seeming as it's only 70 miles away but I'm a bit under the weather at the moment and wouldn't have been much company I'm afraid, hopefully all sorted for next year though
