Bus Slop 2012

Discussion in 'Show Event Photos' started by flagbus, Jul 16, 2012.

  1. New venue for this year being the Bentley Wildfowl Centre and Motor Museum.

    Not sure why more of the TLBers don't go to this fab split venue show that ends up on Eastborne seafront after a cruise via Beachy Head.

    It was raining all the way down to the show on Saturday but stopped as we arrived, so after saying hello to BarneyTrouble, we went off to see the motor musuem and ducks etc.

    Some of the exibits;


    A long time ago, I built a kind of kit-car loosely based on one of these!

    All done, with BarneyTrouble providing the entertainment. At first I thought he was trying to skateboard in the mud but apparently, if you read his post, you realise he was just trying to keep it in his trousers! Ugh!

    Poor Barney didn't make it to Eastbourne! Booo




    But the rest of us did! Hooray!!!

    Was packing up to go home, roof down, washing up hidden in the sink etc, when they put this on my screen, so I stayed another hour with "The most charismatic VW"!

    This was the first car I remember my parents having and we drove all the way from Camberley to St.Ives (Cambs) with my 6 week old sister in a cot in the boot while I rattled around the back seat. Ours wasn't quite as mint though.
