After a quick glance at my Twitter and Facebook feeds I feel like the only person not driving over hallowed ground down the M5 to Run to the Sun this weekend. Sniff.
To distract myself I thought I would write a quick quiz to find out how nuts you lot are for VWs. It's a bit of fun for the bank holiday weekend too!
Read the 10 statements coming up and give yourself one point every time you answer yes.
I'm sure you've done those psycho babble quizzes in mags and newspapers before. You know the ones. 'What on screen couple are you and your guy?' (Baby and Johnny Castle. Patrick can put me in the corner or in the play pen or wherever really) or even 'What type of biscuit are you?' (Toughie. If you've read my previous posts you'll know it would have to be ginger nut).
Make a note of your score then see how you measure up at the end of the post.
1. You make an annual pilgrimage to Devon or Cornwall (or insert your nearest available stunning, rugged coastline here.)
Give yourself a bonus point if you go more than once a year. Lucky so-in-so.
2. You bike, skate, surf, hike, kite surf, coasteer or kayak.
An extra bonus point if you do all of the above. Crazy adrenaline junkie.
3. You or your kids own at least one T Shirt or hoodie with a camper van emblazoned on the front. We are on 9 camper van clothing items in our household, and counting ;)
4. You still call Busfest Vanfest.
Minus one point if you don't know what either of the above is.
5. You are doggie friendly.
One bonus point if you have a dog and you kit it out with a VW neckerchief at every VW event you go to. Yep. Marley, our crazy springer has a fetching baby blue one bought at Vanfest some years ago.
6. You own a VW bus themed wash bag/key ring/mug/coaster/canvas/cookie jar/money box/salt and pepper shaker/VW camper van cook book.
One bonus point if you have all of the above.
If you have not got the VW camper van cook book by Martin Dorey check it out. It's a camper's cooking bible packed full of fuss free tastiness. You don't need a VW camper van to enjoy it either.
7. Your taste in music spans all decades and genres. From 60s Beach Boys to acoustic Jack Johnson and from reggae reggae moves with Bob Marley to rocking out with the Red Hot Chillies.
8. You bring out the board shorts and flip flops at the first flash of sun, no matter how bloody cold it is (this one is for the husband). And in true British bank holiday style he is sporting them this weekend. Well, I have switched the heating on indoors as it's that flipping cold.
9. You own at least one item of clothing from Billabong, Quicksilver, Roxy, Saltrock, Animal, O'Neil, Fat Face, White Stuff, Weird Fish...
One bonus point if you have at least one item from every brand. Moneybags.
10. You know what the Shaka sign is without checking it up on Wikipedia.
One bonus point if you are sat there giving one right now whether you had to look it up or not.
So, how did you do?
0 to 3 points - Vdub newbie
4 to 6 points - Vdub rookie
7 to 10 points - Vdub devotee
10 points plus - Vdub nutty!
Enjoy the bank holiday, whatever the weather peeps!
One life, drive it.
