| Billing 2007! The last few years the SW attendance has been at best abysmal, Im starting tyhis thread early to make sure we drum up some interest and get some numbers up. Lee and I ended up squatting the NW regions area in 2005  
Would be nice to turn it around and get back to the 2002/2003 numbers - these weekends were really great with lots of members enjoying the sun/bbq/beer/car orientated fun!!
Whos planning on coming along this year then? What days are you coming for?
Saturday is the Club Day, Sunday is the official VBOA Judging day.
Its held at the Billing Aquadrome, just of the A43 near Nortampton on 7/8th July.
I'll probably be there fri/sat/sun.
would be ace to have lots of faces there  |

remember the night we fitted your first ever wob wob to your cav.
and you kinda went nuts driving like a total loon round taunton.
and when we robbed a cavalier of its door handles and that scrappy and then realised the car was taxed and not actually for scrap  |
