Camping by the Castle

[Speedman]

Last weekend we ended up in Arundel in the shadow of the castle for yet another VW camping weekend show, probably the last one of the year (theres still plenty of one dayers to go) We took a really nice lazy drive down, firstly as I fancied a slow non motorway drive as normally we are off up to Santa Pod and its M25/M1 all the way, also after some engine grief I wanted to take it easy. So it was A roads and country lanes to the coast. Got ourselves a prime spot next to the show field as a friend was one of the organisers.



We set up and had a natter while some more friends turned up until we had a 40 strong pitch.



Then headed into town for the afternoon, it was a couple of minute walk which is a nice change to the usual middle of nowhere efforts of most shows, saw this tidy Oz Falcon to boot.



Back on the camp we stuffed our faces and chatted till it got dark.





;D

Saturday morning and after a hearty bacon roll we took the short walk round the show, its only in its first year, but still had a reasonable show of traders.





Trying to be as British as possible I collared the local town crier, my mates Union Jack Buggy and the castle for a photo.



After lunch it was another walk into town for us (snooze time for Lily)







Up past the castle we spotted a daily Alfa, a group of nuns had just walked off down the hill, I'd like to think it was theirs.





In the town square one of the shows band was busking out the side of our friends Spilt crewie.



After the impromptu gig we wandered back for a BBQ past this tidy DS.



After plenty of meat it was time for a walk round the campsite before the evening entertainment.









The rest of the night was taken up with The Rocker Covers in the big tent.



And finally bed, sunday was a washout for us so we headed home early via another country lane drive and a nice pub lunch ;D
