Volvo Owners Club National BKV 2013 - BBB will be attending

Post by volvomania » 16 May 2013 07:37 am

This years BKV will be held at Hatton Country World (near Warwick) on Sunday 16th June.
Born Built Beauties will be attending again as I did last year, and I'll also be bringing parts over.
But if you are after anything special or you want to make sure that you get what you need, do contact me in advance.
Life is a journey, so sit back and enjoy the ride!

I was suppossed to get an emergency delivery of UB in September, but that one crashed somewhere near the M25 I believe. :roll:
A second delivery attempt was suppossed to have come in December, but the driver fell ill. :oops:
The third attempt in March never made it out of the driveway in the UK sm2, snow spoilt the trip this time.:mrgreen:
Still thanks for all the attemps mr X 340pw

So yes :lol: I am out of UB and come :twisted: hell :twisted: or high water will I be getting my UB in June sm4

And Chris, I have an order of UB awaiting me :wink: as I don't expect to find as much stuff as I did last year.

I've clearly missed a joke here...! sm56 sm56 sm56

Foggysound (TM) will be doing the PA. Let's see if the beards are ready for 4kW of speech reinforcement! I'm going to see if Ryan can drive the V70, so I can bring the 343.

cheers

Only in this forum could a thread divert this quickly and very few people get annoyed :lol: :lol:

And... would someone think of doing this in the first place! :D

Glad they arrived okay RJ - bon appetit! Your misfortune of non-delivery of promised supplies prompted me to take action as you must have been months without!

Had to keep under 2kg so I've kept a jar from the "3 for €4.50" Tesco offer when I was shopping last week, for myself. So I'll be enjoying some too. Yum yum.

An Post (the Irish post office) doesn't permit liquids of any quantity to be sent internationally, citing IATA regulations, but Royal Mail does. This is because An Post are talking bull, it's just their company policy they're trying to blame on someone else. That is why I marked them down on the declaration as 2 x 500g jars of coffee... :lol:

I hadn't really paid any attention to that label.
When I received the box my initial thought was that you had found someting really special :shock: , or had sent me some overhaulable parts in anticipation of the BKV.
So I don't need to tell you my reaction when I saw the jars. sm97
I've changed todays menu so one of the jars won't make it past 1900 sm99 tonight.

BTW, who will be coming to the BKV?????
So far I know of
Volvomania (Robbert Jan)
Mac
