Postby kjdiscos » Sat Jul 24, 2010 7:41 pm

Hi all,

you probably now me from the connect forum with all my annoying questions ! ha,

Thanks for all the help and freindliness even if i do seem a pest.

I have a transit connect 03 plate 75ps, fairly standard only things i've done are,

driving lamps, in dash dvd, sub and amp, and bluetooth handsfree.

so nothing special.

Realy toying with idea of coming to transit mania, But wuld be coming on my own can't talk any mates into it, Is it a case of just turn up and mingle ? or do people come with the missus etc, Thought would be good to meet some people but dunt wana be a billy on me own drinking ha

just come along you'll love it 8) i've just this minute come back from the club weekend at gaydon 8) 8) and i'm itching for another weekend away :lol:
people will always chat and the atmosphere is very friendly, you always get little localised groups but at night we'll have the marquee with disco so it gets everyone together 8)

and there's a trophy for connects this year so we need more than 1 to turn up :lol: G-man was the only 1 last year :) and dont thing your van needs to be in show condition or majorly modded - its not about that :!: you can chat to others get ideas etc. appreciate work they have done and just generally chill out for the weekend 8)
