1st Day out in 2014 for the green machine

At last a day with no rain, so me and Grace decided to jump in Arnie and take him for a spin around Portsmouth. We headed down to Southsea beach to see what the recent storms had washed up, Grace found a small fossil but that's about it, she was chuffed though!

A bit later we went through the drive thru at McDonalds then parked up along Eastern road over looking Langstone Harbour, it was a lovely evening and managed to grab some great photos to share.

 

Camper & Bus Guildford to Bournemouth Cruise 2013

On Saturday 22nd of June four buses from Portsea Island Dubs drove up from Portsmouth to Guildford to take part in the Camper & Bus Guildford to Bournemouth Cruise.

We arrived at a field in Guildford around 2pm and set up the camp site for the night, there was a strange band playing some weird tunes in the evening but we stayed around the camp and enjoyed a feast thanks to Dad & Jen and John & Tracy, we never go hungry when they are around :)

 The next morning we was up at 6am to pack up the camp and get ready to join around 200 camper vans on a 75 mile cruise to Bournemouth beach where we would park up with everyone at the show and enjoy the day, there were stalls all along the seafront selling all VW and Camper Van bits and bobs. Thankfully the weather stayed dry for the whole day (you may notice I say that alot in this blog but it always seems to be wet here!). Grace enjoyed the weekend as usual, she's a proper little V Dub Girl :)

Apex Festival 2013

We had a great weekend at the Apex Festival at Lydden Hill Race Circuit with the Portsea Island Dubs club, there was some awesome cars on show with a nice line up of barn door buses and some great races on the track. Me and Amy got a little drunk on the Saturday and enjoyed the silent disco.

A big thanks to everyone who came with us and made us food, and to the organisers of Apex Festival!

Hopefully next year I will take Arnie on the track! Roll on Apex Festival 2014!!!

Here's some photos

 

Sunset in the bus

You cant beat a nice sunset can you?!

After taking Arnie out along Gosport to Lee on solent to pick up a cool deck chair that I won on ebay I decided to pop in the KFC drive thru at north harbour, then I headed to Port Solent where I parked up and enjoyed dinner whilst watching the sun set next to Portchester Castle.

Out and about in the green machine

We have not been anywhere exciting lately so I thought id share a few new photos with you all from this weekend, we popped down Eastney on Saturday morning for a bacon roll and met up with my dad and nephew in my dads bus, saw a few other buses out and about this weekend now that the summer is getting here.

Also is anyone else going to the Apex Festival next month?
