VW Festival - Harewood House, Leeds

[Eshrules]

Really enjoyed my first VW Festival - great atmosphere with hundreds of like-minded VW enthusiasts. Sat night was good, although I thought the main band wasn't up to much - prefered listening to the guys outside, playing from the van. Pity I didn't get to meet up with anyone from VWAF, perhaps next year we''ll get a VWAF flag up?

whereabouts did you camp bud? I had us right near the entrance road, with the A4's plates and banner in as obvious a place as i could get it

Hi,
We got there for about 12:30 ish, and set up camp in the main field at the top of the hill to the right, against the tree line. By 1:00 it had really filled up and clubs/groups were setting up in the middle area.
Changing the subject a bit/lot - we were walking back to our tent after visiting the latrines near the entrance to the field just after midnight, when we and several others saw, what appeared to be a bright orange/red circular object in the sky travelling from West to East, quite high and quite fast, then it seemed to vanish, no sound at all. This was followed about five minutes later by an identical object going in the same direction as before. I did a search on Google yesterday and put in 'UFO sightings 15th August'. I couldn't belive what it came back with! Check out www.uk-ufo.co.uk . This sort of thing has been spotted all over the UK over the past few weeks, and all give similar if not identical reports.
There must have been loads of other people that witnessed this this weekend at Harewood Hall - spooky....

I was just about to say "I was there" but then was wondering where all the VDubs were ....... of course, you must be talking about an earlier event - I was there this weekend just gone for "Cars in the Park"

Still a couple of nice Golfs made it along, and quite a few nice interesting cars.
