East Dulwich seems to have a large number of VW campervan and Beatle owners and with ourselves and East Dulwich Campers being in the area it has struck me that maybe there is benefit in forming a VW owners club for East Dulwich.


The idea would be to meet periodically (say every 4 ? 6 weeks) in a local pub or other venue, share knowledge, show our vehicles off, ask questions and where possible look at getting discounts on parts and other things related to owning and driving a VW.


Open to ideas and suggestions on how to organise and run a club of this ilk, but thought it would be fun to meet and talk with other enthusiasts and to share knowledge where we can.


If you are interested then please either PM me directly or put a response on here and in a few weeks I will get back to anyone who responds with more details should people think it?s a good idea.

Sounds like you have already made that decision to keep it just based on how you described it.

Thanks PandG, an early bay very nice!


In answer to hour question this was on the general ed section before admin moved it here so not tempting fate again 😊

Sorry to resurrect such an old thread, but there are tons of VW vans in ED and I thought today a EDF page to share info would be great.


We have a T4 LHD VW Westfalia, called Brigit. She's a beloved part of the family although starting to need a fair amount of work.


Did this VW owners group take off?

Hi ebeb2


As Seabag so elegantly mentioned, this thread is 5 years old and didn't get enough interest at the time.


Happy to revisit the idea if others are interested but obviously with lockdown, meetups will be impossible but nothing to stop online / virtual discussions.

    • Having had several cats over the past 40 years - mainly rescue, we have a tried and tested routine, Initially confined to one room with litter tray/food/water - we take it in turns to stay for a few minutes several times a day so they become familiar with our scent. They are gradually introduced to the rest of the house. We have a wire cat basket and we place cat in basket and take them outside, over a few days we place basket in different areas of the garden - grass area/gravel area, patio area etc - different flowers/plants. Some of the more nervous cats we walk around the garden on a lead. They get use to the scent of the garden. We have a cat flap in the back door so they have full access - If we need to keep cat in - just block off the cat flap so they cannot escape! We are now down to one elderly cat - who during the summer just laid on the garden chairs and came in for food, but as weather getting colder prefers to sit on a worktop in the kitchen looking out into the garden. So we are back to the cat litter as she is reluctant to go out in the rain/cold.  
    • With fibre you are paying for the speed, which is the number, yours is 300 so if you did a lot of gaming, for example, you would want the fastest possible.  If it's just office work or maybe streaming on Netflix you likely won't need as fast, but, if there are a lot of people in your house all doing their own thing on different devices, then faster speeds are better.  I don't rely on my Wi-Fi much other than when I am using my mobile.  I use Ethernet cables to connect up everything, I Have one cable running from my router, along the skirtings and through a hole I drilled in the wall to another room.  I have attached the plusnet speed guide which gives you an idea of how it works.   
    • I'd reread what you posted and try to summarise.  It just comes across as a rant.
    • Really like living in a country where big brother is  looking at you -, not that it is likely to happen in UK but crime should have stricter consequences.. not just put into jail which I gather is where more bad habits are learnt.
