Doris the Roaving Reporter: VW Heretics

Last time out we gave Doris, who right now is in need of precious R&R a shot at reporting.
It turns out she was pretty good, so she has reprised the role of Roaving Reporter to talk about her account of VW Heritage's monthly event, VW Heretics earlier in the month.

We have to understand Doris is not only slow on the road, but also at reporting so I apologise for the delay.

"VW Heritage's 'VW Heretics' meet truly marks the start of the British Summer Time season. The weather was mild and sunny which set the scene perfectly for the evening ahead. It also marked the first time where we took two Bugs to an event with McCartney who is still experiencing problems managed to do the 30 mile round trip to Burgess Hill in West Sussex. We later deduced that his Carburetor is the underlying problem in this mess. Luckily, VW Heritage are on hand to offer such parts so freely.

Upon arrival, we experienced a grand entry to the party with at least 100 visitors and VW fans admiring the convoy as they arrived line-a-stern.  in a spectacular fashion with McCartney cutting out in front of everyone at the meet and myself arriving in the wrong direction.

"They had to push me in as soon as I arrived as the engine cut out, I am getting too unfit for this in my old age and with an unidentified problem at the time, I think it's a saving grace really because my owner's music was purely awful that night." Quips McCartney as he discussed his arrival to the show, some say he was the Raving Reporter that evening.

The Green Machine earlier in the year!

The turnout of cars was around the 40 mark and we were very happy to have large amounts of interest in myself and McCartney. McCartney's owner was much more interested in having a look around the other Bugs for inspiration for our new recruit, Jake, by looking at colour's and particular interiors. All very exciting stuff!

It was a pleasure to have another chance to write.

Much love, Doris."

It was a great evening, apart from the incident that sadly occurred the morning after. However, we will be back again!

P.S. The Bratwurst hot dogs served out of the VW Bus... AMAZING.

UPDATE: We lost all photo's for VW Heretics. Balls.

DubLove!
