Hi Martin,
On Friday will you be coming around to introduce yourself ?
Also are there any plans to gather up the bar/club house.
On Friday night there is live music from 7pm. I don't think there will be anything on the Sat night. Unless they are playing sport on the big screen ?
And FYI for other people who are going - i see that down in West Bay on Saturday there is going to be two open air markets.

Cya all Friday :)
There is always the Grand National!
 
Who’s Cali is this? Love the colour. Similar to phoenix yellow on e46 m3 :thumb

View from our van tonight. Gale force winds, soo cold, but fabulous view.
 
What a lovely weekend. Quite the range of weather with a fair bit of lovely sun, gale force gusts of wind and even a short sharp hail storm… It all made for a wonderful and memorable first meet which won’t be our last, having met lots of lovely people and had nice chats - thank you all! JP & Tamsin
 
Thanks to everyone who attended this weekend , in the end we had 74 vans in total !!

We realise the weather was not great and this stopped many people from being outside their vans and chatting like we normally do, also It did not help that the site scattered us everywhere which is not what we expected as we assumed we would all be together, so we apologise for this.

Anyway we hope you all enjoyed the weekend and we will update soon on the date of the next meet.

Also if anyone fancies arranging their own meet please drop us an email

Thanks for organising this, it was good to meet lots of enthusiastic owners. It was our first meet, looking forward to the next with better weather.
 
Would the owner of this beauty be a forum member?

Hey all, yes I think we were likely the oldest California in town but we’ve had our van for about 7 years now having spent most of its life in Germany but we love it and had a great weekend, wind and all and loved the site. Had a fab weekend with friends and captured a beautiful shot on the Friday evening. See you all again at the next one!
