This is a must for all camper owners or even bug/Karmann owners...sure all isya need is a tent!!!!! 8)

If you want to go to this, there is plenty of time before you need to decide....eircooled will have a club camping pitch there which means I have to book and pay for the vanfest tickets for all the club members who will be going...more details after Easter!!!

we can travel over on the same ferry and have a grand eircooled convoy to Malvern in Worcestershire!!!

 

[Mr Browne]

My van will be there anyway - hopefully with a few passengers

 

[Claire]

it as also a good idea for a few folk to travel together to this one and bring an extra tent or use the awning...cuts down on costs when you share ...and you have great craic too 8)

Myself and Tom will be going in Daisybus ...for the 4th year in a row

 

[Suze]

We wont be going this year Hope ye all have a great time and someone bring me back a Vanfest 2007 mug

 

[Claire]

will do that certainly for you Suzanne 8)

 

[Mr Browne]

We wont be going this year its a great show - hope ye all have a great time and someone bring me back a Vanfest 2007 mug

You should go - airbed and awning available for you in our van (and lift).

 

[Claire]

great idea to share the transport over to cut costs...there were 5 in our van last year and other vans had more then that....ahem :wink:

 

[Suze]

Thanks for the offer Ruairi

Vanfest is what Mecca is to Muslims

 

[Endfloat]

Funny, I didnt see a lot of Muslims there last time I was at Vanfest! :lol: :wink:

 

[Mr Browne]

Ah jaysus - don't start a post about Muslims - it is bad enough being moderator around here lately!!! Vanfest is class - point made

 

[Mr Browne]

[Claire]

That is excellent Ruairi :shock: Have never bothered too much with the entertainment but would love to see/hear them play 8)

 

[Mr Browne]

We better get a few more van owners into the club or we will be going to this on our own

COMMITMENTS AT VANFEST

COMMITMENTS AT VANFEST

all I can say

F****** rapid.

I'll be there, Julie and two friends may come as well.


Taped the film last week and am watching it - spotted a bay pick up so far.

[Mr Browne]

It is a great movie - the bay pickup kinda stars in it if I remember correctly? Can't wait for this myself. You should get a van by then Shuggie!!!

 

[Mr Browne]

Could I make suggestion for the masses....

There is a P&O ferry from Dublin to Liverpool at 2200 every night which arrives in Liverpool at 0600. you get a full nights sleep and a big breakfast and Liverpool is 130 miles from Malvern (as opposed to Holyhead which is 200 miles). Then you can do the same in reverse leaving liverpool at 2200 Sunday night and get another full nights kip. It makes much more sense than getting the ferry to the arsehole of Wales at all sorts of mad times do ye think? The only issue is the price - should be about €300 return but depens on the weekend etc.

 

[shuggie]

Sounds great - The P&O Ferry port is close to the Motorway and is easily found also there is a WW2 U-Boat being restored close by and may be open for viewing.

If 10 people booked vehicles we'd get a discount.

I've a credit note for Stena from last year.
