Great to meet you all, we had a lovely time, sorry we had to go off early. have already been beaten up by grand daughter twice. She likes the van, particularly the roof bed...... oh dear will we get chucked out of it!

Impressive crowd of vans, and aren't they all smart.

David 'n Kay.

Re: Afternoon Meet Near Reading, Berkshire

What a great line up. :clap
I have to comment on the (so called ) parking. The lines are there to be straddled and stop others slamming doors into your pride and joy. (just taking the mic as I am jealous as I could not get up there this weekend )

Re: Afternoon Meet Near Reading, Berkshire



After looking through some of my pictures today , I've just realise that one of the Cali vans has 'warp drive'! And must of departed our company at the speed of light. going by the pic of the Van on the right

Thanks Kevin, Our dogs fine (Rosie), she's never any trouble in a vehicle ,we are just going to take her for a walk! as she's raring to go! 9-40pm?..... I just hope she doesn't want to go for a 6 miler has we are rather weary after the journey.

Stretched limo Cali ...

Good photo's Stephen

 

[stephen]

Re: Afternoon Meet Near Reading, Berkshire

Martin your photographs are great, you must've done rather a lot of cropping to get them all in,
All my photographs tend to be, let's say unconventional, HaHa, but the 'stretched limo' was rather a fortunate mistake, but rather interesting in a distorted way ! :lol: perhaps I have a distorted sense of humour.......

Re: Afternoon Meet Near Reading, Berkshire

I think I'm being dumb, but I have some photos to upload from today and can't see how to do it - using the forum in Google Chrome / Windows 7

Re: Afternoon Meet Near Reading, Berkshire

So far this is the best I can manage:

You may be right there!

I do have a couple of actual pictures to post and can't see how. What's the trick I'm missing?

Re: Afternoon Meet Near Reading, Berkshire

Thanks Chris and Penney,
On your demonstration shoot out yesterday, between Chris and yourselves, on who could put up the quickest roof topper, and also what you considered the best out of the two makes ; 'very interesting,'
like with anything, You pays your money, and you take your choice.

Uploading pictures

 In the post link, just click on 'upload attachments'- 'choose file' in my case I, look up 'my documents', where I installed my compressed JPEG photos, no larger than 1 MB
 otherwise it would not upload, and says in red; 'file to large', then you have to go back in what ever place your pictures are stored in, and re-size them, so that your photograph doesn't exceed 1 MB
Then go to the button; 'Add file' then simply add it to the text, and then hit 'submit'

It's always works for me, and I'm a bit of a 'Luddite' or 'technophobe,' when it comes to computer stuff! :grin:
