Thanks to Coxy and the lads for a great day out. Over 100 cars turned up, the weather held and great food & friendly service in The Cottage made the day complete :)

I arrived late but what bit of it I got to see what great. Unreal turnout that any show during the year would be proud of.

Great signage too, fair play to the boys at CM signs, I found Loughmore easily :)

I think I speak for everyone by saying a HUGH thanks to everybody who organised and worked really hard on making what was simply a brilliant groovy turnout. Some serious array of Vw's today and loads of friendly faces. Hope everyone got home safe and sound.

Absolute wrecked from trying to hold the beetle from blowing away but we got her home. Looking forward to rooting through the goody bag to see what I scored. Thanks again. Here are a few phone photos.

just in the door,left on time but late getting there:) Am thinking of writing a guide to surviving a day out in a bay, make sure jerry can is full,avoid fields with sheep(they might look all nice and fliffy but they can be vicious) and when she decides last minute to tag along make up an excuse to make sure it doeant happen (not politically correct but :p oh yeah gale force winds and a bay pushing 70mph is all fun and games til it jumps 4 feet to the right:)
