Vanfest 2010 - Friday 10th - Sunday 12th September 2010

Forgot the kids were back at school, so won't be able to leave till around 4 as well.

Update

It looks like the vast majority of folks won't be getting to the show until early evening. With that in mind I'd like to propose meeting a few miles from the show at the Fusion Brasserie postcode WR7 4RJ at 6.45pm. We'll then depart at 7.15pm as a group to arrive together at Vanfest. Hopefully that will allow for enough of us BraziBayers to put our Volkswagens in a circle.

The Fusion Brasserie is on a crescent shaped slip road off a main road so we should be able to just pull up along the front if there's no room in their car park. I'll get there early and probably pop in for some tucker. Anyone able to get there early is welcome to join me and my son. The map link to the meeting point at the Fusion Brasserie is here:

Really looking forward to it!

Just in time for the show .... look what turned up yesterday!!


Our very own banner!! I figured it'd be good to have something to mark our pitch with!

Please remember to pm me your mobile number so I can let you know where Campo Braziliano is should you wish to join us?

Fingers crossed for the same weather as last year

Looks good Tim, you will certainly get noticed. Sorry we cant make it as we are off to Southwold this weekend. Post lots of pics.

Love it, and I was worried I wouldn't find you guys if I arrive late!!

Nice one Tim!

Will do. Have a great trip to Suffolk. Have you fitted a radio yet?

Washed, Waxed and ready to go

Nearly there ...... delayed by the need to fit a new fan belt!

The group meeting at the Fusion Brasserie will be entering Vanfest via the YELLOW GATE and heading into the GENERAL CAMPING area as shown in the map. Once we've arrived I'll text everyone else to let you know where we are.


Once we've arrived we'll stick our pop tops up - if we have them - to make us more obvious!

We'll be in one of the areas indicated.

Washed, waxed, hoovered, all ready to go, then rain.... aaarrrrggghhh!!!

Tell me about it Irishman!

Still chances are it'll all get blown away along the route ..... whatever, it's going to be a blast!

Pretty much packed. Just got to fill the onboard fridge, have lunch and we'll be on our way. See you later folks!!

Have a good weekend all, and safe journeys. I'm stuck with visiting universities with my son. Hopefully the sun will shine on you

Wow what a top weekend! Thank you guys for making it a fun time for me and my son.

Brill company - great show - and all topped by kiteman's fiery balls! Pix to follow soon.

Hope you all had a good journey home.

Yup.....great to meet other members, thanks for the beer Tim. Definately club camp next year.
I bought the new wheels but still got the wrong nut formation, so will now keep for a winter project.
Trip home was faultless. Bus now goes into hibernation

Good to meet
All the best
The Buttens

First and definately not the last vanfest we'll be attending, like you Tim, my son and I had a blast!!
First thing my son told my wife about when we got home was 'Kitemans' firey balls!!

Thanks Tim for getting things organised, banner, flag and beer and awning etc....

Look forward to next year and hope a few more will join us at Campo Brazilliano!!

Mine's bigger than yours Irishman


duz diz dub look low? Sure duz daz!

Hopefully getting this chic looking Bayby on the forum soon.

All of a sudden on Sat pm - kiteman shocked us all by revealing his fiery balls and tested the BraziBays knowledge of simple shapes. Max and Mish both knew this one straight away - it's a fish!




Sunday am, and the sun shone brightly over Campo Braziliano.

It became quickly apparent that despite the intake of vino the night before, Malcolm had played it safe and used protection.

The Brazilian VW Bay.com flag and Brazilian flag flew high above the BraziBays - long may they do so!

A great event and lovely to meet everyone

Nice to meet everyone had good time

had a great time,thanks to evryone at campo Brazilliano, and especially to Dazdub who has now inspired me to get on and do all those little mechanical jobs myself, off out to get wax oil gear now Dazdub!!!

What a motley crew, camp brazilio looks cool, as does the banner and flag. Tim can you put some names to the faces?
