took us 20 minutes to find the lounge meet cos of the bar being turned into a kids playground. too bad it was so short for us.
but it was quite interesting to see it set up as a group therapy Cheesy

anyway, was it sven from DFL who took the group photo? i hope we can find it somewhere in fullsize, that would be cool Grin
cheers dudes!

I had less time to play with this year with only a day at the show rather than three and as usual didn't get the chance to catch up with everyone properly but it was good to see people again. See you trackside in the UK and on the Continent later in the season; yet another one stuck with this VW thing so roll on Summer. Should be a good one.

I couldn't make the bar meet as I was slogging away downstairs. Big thanks to Russell and the rest of his club for a great curry on friday.  Grin

as you know, i agree with you lids, its always a great show and its not a criticism, its a victim of its own success, but i do reckon that it would be more 'user friendly` if there was more space.......not an easy thing to do though i would suspect....

Has the Volksworld show outgrown Sandown?

(After reading that thread in Volkszone..) I am not sure if it was much more crowded than other indoors shows that I've been to. As nice it is to get really close to the cars and study the details, I don't really understand why do people have to touch the cars.. I watched some old guy was feeling "Too Old's" Oval's driver side front fender and the 'Verts like James' black one or the yellow metalflake one got fondled more than the owners probably like.

Below is a shot I took year before, I had no idea who the couple was, maybe the owners of the NB in best case, but funny as f**k..

"or the yellow metalflake one got fondled more than the owners probably like."  Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

Its funny you mention that - we were talking about that subject on sunday whilst standing next to Robs Bronze Manx and watching people rub their grubby little fingers all over it  Roll Eyes I lost count of how many people who have rubbed their hands ALL OVER my manx  Roll Eyes its almost as though poeple feel like they HAVE to touch the Flake - oh well I guess its a kinda compliment Undecided Wink Smiley

Anyway BACK TO THE TOPIC I know Sandown is kinda small BUT as far as I am concerned Sandown Park IS The Volksworld Show - it holds alot of memories for me  Smiley

This is just my 2 cents BUT I think it would help ALOT if people left the Wife, Kids, Pushchairs, Dogs etc AT HOME!!!!!!!!!!! Can someone PLEASE tell me the point of an extremly bored housewife pushing a 6month old baby around a room full of smelly old car parts Huh  Wink Smiley

I had a great time at the show this year. Bought almost nothing, but enjoyed chatting and drinking beer with the people I met.

Hey guys,

Sven is really busy as I am right know. But I will call him and tell him that you want to see the photo!  Smiley

BTW, I enjoyed the show and I think Sandown is the right place. It was the eleventh year for me and as Lee said, there are many memories connected to Sandown. I just love the show, love meeting people and feeling the atmosphere.

Thanks to the Volksworld team for a great show!
See you next year there!
