I am opening up the weekend slightly this year in that there will be something organised for the Friday if anyone is up for it?
Turn up Thursday Night and make a full weekend of it,I know some regulars will be there Thursday or Wednesday even :lol:
I won't say too much as to what to expect this Year because nothing is really fully sorted yet, the Quiz and Raffle go without saying.... :| :lol:

A good response so far,I will book hook ups requested, shame about the Brands Indy as that will probably rule all the Benoys out and they are W.W.W. regulars :( Jim, it will be great to see you there flying the Saltire flag mate, Dom, guilty as charged bud,awesome pics those. :wink: Jimbo, Tina says she will bring shampoo and clippers along and sort the hair thing for you! :lol:
I had an email from Tracey offering us to book the whole field but although it would save us a couple of quid it would add too much to the workload so I have asked that everyone pays in the pub for their camping BEFORE coming onto the camping field.
One more thing....being the imp 50th we are having a fancy dress for the Saturday Night and the theme is WALES!! :o :lol: 8)
Entry fee to the event will be £4.00 per adult, to cover our costs which seem to get greater every year hence the small increase in fee. :oops:
Don't forget that there are 3 b+b rooms available now at The Rising Sun if you don't fancy camping. (if you have booked a room at The Risin' sun could you let me know please.)
Any questions or problems pm me.

Hi,
Attended my first WWW on Saturday, came for the scenic tour.
Thanks to Charlotte and Dave the van for letting me tag on behind them on the tour.
Unfortunately my "little monster" decided to go on three cylinders at low revs, reluctantly I decided to go for an early bath.
Thanks also to all those who stopped with me in the lay-by asking if any assistance was required.
I managed to get it home under its own steam.
I striped it today and found that the manifold gasket had disintegrated around no 1 inlet port (see photo), good news really !!
To put salt on the wound I lost my WWW plague somewhere :x
Hope to have better fortune next year.

P.S. Andy, probably the car sulked because I took it out in the rain. lol :lol:

Probably going to get in trouble for this, but for any one who didn't come to WWW, this is what you missed out on!

Parked up at Llandovery, including some Imps that didn't stay at Pandy and a white Clan (OUP 10M is listed on the Clan Owners website as a "missing" Clan (so anyone know anything about this one or is it DUP 10M???)

Good job there weren't 6 Imps on it in January!
