An area to allow you to advertise when, where and what your OFFLINE club, group or VW community is up to. Where your next cruise is to be held, where you regularily meet. All the usual to allow our members to maybe come along if your group suits them, gainiong more members for some of the smaller clubs out there. Post away feel free to tell us all a bit about your group etc at the same time, i am sure we would all like to know a bit more about some of the smaller lesser known, clubs particularily. We all look forward to hearing from you whether you are a club member or Secretary or Chairperson its all one to us. Slanj Added (2009-04-06, 2:29 Pm) --------------------------------------------- Northern Dub Foundation well i'll start the ball rollin then eh? our vw club, northern dub foundation, many of us are t4 owners. are having our next meet on the 15 march , in the carpark opposite the auctioneer pub/restaurant on auchinleck drive in rosehill , carlisle, cumbria, ca1 2ur. just behind the vw dealers there's normally a good mix of v dubs turn up. at our last meet in feb there was about 30 vag rides , but we'll always welcome more well if your in the area pop along, you'll be more than welcome. were about 2 mins from the m6 junction 43 Added (2009-04-06, 2:31 Pm) --------------------------------------------- Durham Dubbers meet, every second Sunday of the month, at The Floaters Mill , Woodstone Village, Fencehouses DH4 6BQ if your ever in the neighbor hood pop in Added (2009-04-06, 4:54 Pm) --------------------------------------------- Ok gang Stew is back from his travels now [lucky ++] anyway who is going to be willing to put their names down after ours as willing to attend and to sponsor his boy to swim across Lake Windemere i think it was ------------ The details are as follows all willing and wanting to attend we are not going to make this a formal meet so what was suggested was that every member taking part would upon arrival at the campsite place in Stew's sweaty left mit a crisp new £10 the reason for this would be to show our support and boost his son's donation fund, which i think would be a nice gesture ..... So if Stew would be so kind as to fill us in on the full details so we are better able to plan ahead, as if there is not enough to make booking a site together then the White Noise crew might just come down for the day. although we beleieved that with it being in the Lake District and quite central for all it would be an ideal chance for a meet and greet, whilst helping i am sure a worthy cause....... STEW HELP........................ Added (2009-04-06, 4:51 Pm) --------------------------------------------- Attending White Noise + 3 [probably] ....

Ok Dougie, my son's booked to swim on Sun 13 Sept. at 10am The start (and finish) is from the Low Wood Hotel on the shore of Lake Windermere. If anyone wants info its www.greatswim.org/ then select Great North Swim. So we'll need a suitable campsite in the near locality. Stew Attending White Noise + 3 [probably] Stew n Joan

Well for those of you who might want to know my Joan has taken volantary redundancy & this has been accepted. So she finishes on 30 April. Not long now!!. So we have decided to take a L...O...N...G holiday in France. We've booked the ferry crossing for Tues 12 May & return on the Tues 8 Sept. Our plan is to spend a few weeks at our farmhouse then off around France then back to the farmhouse for a few weeks before returning to the UK, so we can be at Windermere to see my son do his sponsored swim on Sun 13 Sept. So with this in mind during this next week I'm going to book a site for the weekend of the 12/13 Sept. I'll let you know where so if anybody's interested in joining us you'd be more than welcome. Stew

I have a wireless laptop, & have used it in France last year, but the speed & connection was absolutely cr*p, & the cost was somewhat excessive. So won't be using my Dongle!!

Don't they have phone or mobile connections ??? my mate has a cottage in Manche i shall ask what he does for you as i know he won't spend anything he doesn't have to. In anycase there will be internet cafes etc you could use so no excuses, we want a running comentary, at least once a week to tell us where you are even an e-mail to me and i will tell the community what your up to would settle for a text And of course a full itinerised diary and image gallery when you return. My daughter is going to France at the end of June to Bourdeaux with her school so we might just have to come over during her week good excuse Rockley Adventures if anyone knows them a large Uk company settling up water sports holidays for Uk kids in France great name and safety record apparently the bees kness and are one of the best for it so we are led to believe... [For anyone new who doesn't know on both T4 Camper our original home and here at T4 -T5 Club Stew is as close to a founder member as we have being no 3 to register excluding myself and no 1 to register excluding myself here his daily wit, caharm and assistanc ewill be missed over the coming months when he shall be away ]

You shouldn't be embarrased without you this would not of been possible, i am sure everyone has heard of the voice of reason Stew is undoubtedly it i think in retrospect i will start you know like golf clubs and masonic lodges have a role of honour board for everyone who has helped to get us to where we are today it woudl read something like this. So in no particular order apart from no 1 and 2 here goes 2008 - Dougie Founder Editor Webmaster 2008 - Stewjo - For encouragement and unfailing loyalty 2008 - Ray - For continually answering alsorts of tech questions 2008 - Listensqueak - Just for being here religiously 2008 - Taken - for unfailing loyalty 2008 - Von For being the first lady of T4 -T5 Club UK <_< 2008 - Stan- For just being "the man" 2009 - T4DK - Thomas for denmarlkian encouagement and enthusiasm 2009 - Marky for our banners and logos and of course scottishvag for encouragement 2009 - Onefut - for singlehandedly in the space of 24hrs putting us on the map 2009 - Danbury Motor Caravans for sponsoring us Without each and everyone of you we would not be here today, we duly thank each equally and trust the worst is over, the trials and tribulations of starting a community behind us are over, we are on the way up, the slope has been steep, a major learning curve, but we are finally at the top of said slope, about to fly up the other side adorn your skies, board or sledges the ride might still be a bumpy one, none the less i am convinced a very worthwhile one all the same

Oh shucks now i'm embarrased :taunt: Good things come to those who wait as my olde mum used to say!! and it appears so, opening up our borders so to speak seems to of made all the difference, continually changing content, and features people want to read i belive is what is setting us apart from the rest, and is what will eventually take us upwards still further. I was new to all this when i started and have taken onboard most of what i have been told, and apart from a few odd parts i want to change for the better we are almost there !! [i hear my regs saying thank goodness] the wait i promised you would be worth it and it seems i am right, just keep being embassadors for T4 - T5 Club UK know matter what is said, i have had all sorts thrown at me, all sorts of insults and dirogatory comments but its like water off a ducks back comes with the territory, and is something i just have to bear, for the better good, although i have to say Mrs Whiet Nois eand i have a good laugh about most of it now as teh peopel who critisise have clearly not been here otherwise theiristupid inane comments would be made in the first place so i just keep plugging away getting some bits dead right and some not so, although things are now starting to level out nicely. I last week [Ray you might know this already being an avid fan of other communities] went to Brick-Yard to ask for advice which is where i found Mr OneFut and his overnight changing advice, now i was almost prepared fore the inane, stupid trouble maker staht every forum has and found a few as expected but i persevered as i personally [don't know about the rest of us] hold Brick-Yard very high in my trankings of communities i woudl be proud to be a part of, it speaks it's mind and to blazes with the consequences, which is fine if that is what you want and from time to time we all do, but i wanted to produce something your kids coudl safely be a part of and you would be proud to show your parents your Transporter being featured on, which with the best will in the world i don't think describes my friends at the Brick-Yard, each to their own however and Mr Baxter and Brickyard have done a grand job i use them regularily which is why i respected their views [and it got us a few T5 owners to boot ]. I am happy to say we are now sailing out of the harbour all checks completed, now on our own happy to proceed !!! I have a few features up my sleeves, i am working on which will be realised this coming month which i think will bring in still more members, as long as i am able to keep my core audience happy i am happy as always if you have anything to add feel free to do so...
