With the invite
of free entry to the show myself and Merv Barnett made our way to Easter
Compton for the annual Bristol Volksfest. We did have a little trouble getting
free entry (Ian Walker had to leave his Model A in the main visitors car park
and pay to get in) but after a phone call the jobsworth let us pass. We parked
in our allocated spot, where we were later joined by two more local rods, then
proceeded to examine the stalls spaced all around. |

One thing about
all VW shows is that they cater for everyone and make the event a total family
affair. The Patina look has certainly caught on with the air-cooled crowd and
to be honest looked really good. Looking around the show ground I was a little
disappointed by the lack of Beetles standard or modified that used to support
this event - Ovals being a favorite of mine. This event had spacious
surroundings ,children's play areas, rock climbing, a fairground, lots of food
stalls, live music - and as it was World Cup week a big screen TV to show the
Saturday England's live game. In all the organizers had thought of everything,
even the nice weather.
