Great photos - bet they bring back memories for some folks

he aint drove his bus since

That surely does bring back some very good memories.
4th pic down looks like the Axe and Compasses, I was there on Friday evening and camped at Villa Farm before going to Busfreeze. I remember very fondly meetings in those days and the people.

the top photo of the bus from action '91 was Dave somthing from Lytham, who changed the colours nearly every year. Last I saw of it it was in Streetwagens farm looking very sorry for itself, with wooden sills and two roofs!
Fantastic photos of a very young Mr Squeeky.
Must learn how to post photos

I have to dig some of mine , I have been away for some time who are still around Terry Ellis ? Ray who I did see in one photo

Are you some sort of time Lord Mr Yip? You dont look and older with your bomber jacket on, altough you do look a bit camp
I think you captured the scene at it's best mate and just like Final Fling just gone that's what it's all about!


Keep the photo's coming mate! I'd post my own but we were so poor we had just a black board and chalk!


Cheers

HI Beany how are you doing -long time no hear great to hear from you-good ol days

pic8 is fast freddie in his wide bed pick up-rare!

After the Axe and Compasses picture then there is the Stanford Hall line up followed by Villa Farm (I would recognise those humps anywhere!!). Fairly convinced in the camping pics I can see Amanda in short dungarees but would need a magnifying glass to be sure as my eyesight is not as good as it used to be.

What good days they were, Amanda and Trevor remember them fondly. Matthew does not remember much of his early years of camping so does not have such good memories (although there have been some good camps).

My two realy miss those days we talk about them often
