    The guest 72wilma (Moira and Julie)

    [size=12pt]question

    1 -- What got you into late bays .

    We've always camped and loved it, but as the winter and early spring came around we camped less and less. Then one summer in Cornwall, we saw tons of campers and I asked Julie, 'What's that?' and one thing led to another and voilĂ  we found ourselves mooching around Greater Manchester looking at a whole host of really mangy buses. Ian, Julie's brother found Wilma and journey began ...

    2 - what is the first song you would have on your desert island and why .

    Red Hot Chili Peppers - Road Trippin' [Official Music Video]

    every trip in Wilma starts with this :)

    3 - do you regard yourself as a lifelong vw fanatic or are you just going through a phase in your life .

    not life long as in ever since a nipper, but can't really imagine life without one now

    4 next song choice and why

    Pixies- Debaser (Official Video)

    cos we can't sit still to this, we'd be bouncing around the island!

    5 - What do you do for a living at the moment .

    for sins in a previous life, we both teach

    6 Third and last song choice here .

    and for purely soppy reasons

    Vanessa Williams - Save The Best For Last

    7 - Do you frequent vw shows and if so which one do you enjoy the most , if not , do you intend to visit a show in the near future and which one .

    can't wait for Camperjam, we've worked through the year of shows and now just go to the ones we enjoy

    8 - Could you ever see yourself making a living from your vw passion.

    hahahhaa. absolutely no mechanical skills at all but I can crochet a mean blanket :)

    9 - what one single camping item could you not do without in your van

    mini coffee grinder, decent beans and one of these

    Handpresso WILD - DomePod - STEP-BY-STEP guide to making a perfect cup of espresso
     
  20. The guest: Dazzle

    question

    1 -- What got you into late bays .

    I have always wanted one but due to many years of alcohol & drug abuse i never had the funds or motivation to pass my driving test let alone own a Late Bay. Luckily i wised up and sorted my sorry ass and passed my test and married Donnups who shared my admiring eye at the Late Bay.

    2 - what is the first song you would have on your desert island and why .

    The Prodigy - Rhythm of Life

    Banging tune that sends shivers up and down my spine and makes me want to dance like a lunatic everytime i hear it.



    3 - do you regard yourself as a lifelong vw fanatic or are you just going through a phase in your life .

    I wouldnt say a lifelong fan but certainly once i got in to my 20's the interest grew. The very first time i drove Rusty i fell in love completely. There will be no going back now.

    4 next song choice and why

    Robbie Williams - Come Undone

    At a stage in my life where i relised i had destroyed my life this tune hit me like a ton of bricks. Straight in to the heart. Robbie was singing to me and i took major inspiration from this track and his work when i started on the road to sobriety. Helped me through some dark times and gave me the courage to clean up my act. Maybe its because he's the same as me in that sense.

    5 - What do you do for a living at the moment .

    Senior Substance Misuse Support Worker

    6 Third and last song choice here

    Madonna - Like A Virgin (video)

    Made me realise what it was there for.

    7 - Do you frequent vw shows and if so which one do you enjoy the most , if not , do you intend to visit a show in the near future and which one .

    Having on recently become an owner of a Late Bay our presents at VW shows has been limited to just the 2 but this is something that will change over the years. Hope to meet with you all very soon and put some names to faces.

    8 - Could you ever see yourself making a living from your vw passion .

    No but only due to knowing bugger all about mechanics but who knows i may well learn something one day so never say never but i doubt it :))

    9 - what one single camping item could you not do without in your van

    My chair

    Now nominate the next guest from the tlb members list and your reason for nominating that person

    Anyone that would like to give it a go.
