Well, it will be a short report, as we only did 3 nights out, and about 400 miles.

We go to the Retro Rides gathering every year, and when we decided to get married, Nicola suggested we go to the RRG '10 and then off to Bath in Somerset for a few days with the Teardrop, which had not been built at the time. (It would have been in the Transit, which ultimately did not make it this year)

We also brought my Brother over to join us at the wedding as a witness, and to spend some time here in the UK.

He slept in the back of the VW in a single bed mattress..... perfect !!

The trailer proved itself to be watertight, as well as perfect for our camping trip.

It also drew loads of attention and I was asked a few times where I had bought it, with some people not wanting to believe it was home built. PERFECT !!


Married, and most of the photos taken.

Just one pic of my younger brother, life saver, and great friend.

Our spot at The Gathering. BBQ up and going, with Lewis checking out Nicola's Pink scooter, perfect for campground duties.
The powered bike is one he built for the Gathering. He and others were hooning about the whole weekend on it.

Marital duties for the man of the house.

Stunning campgrounds at Bath.

Forgot to mention, she completely surprised me by arriving in this truck......

Redneck bride indeed.

Her Bouquet was Proteas as well, another surprise, the South African national flower.
