Cool  Crazy VW Wedding - August 2009

Its finally come and got me. After 8 years of engagement and 2 cancelled wedding dates (reasons were: bereavement, house renovation) the missus has nailed me by working out where I will be on a certain date next year.

Basically we will be having a formal ceremony at the local registry office then having a blessing/grand pissup at Run To The Hills - our August VW show. All our friends will be there, we will be there, its local, there will be food, beer and entertainment so its pretty ideal. Kate will arrive in her Cerise 1302 Karmann cabriolet and I will be there in the Westy (white by then maybe?) or Syncro. We will be having the blessing (by the show DJ/close friend) on a live stage. Kate will be wearing a proper dress (slightly gothic?) and white docker boots (haven't see it myself of course) and be flanked by her 8 bridesmaids who will all be wearing matching cerise RTTH Bridesmaid T-Shirts and cerise docker boots. I'm totally baffled as to what I am wearing at this stage Icon_cheesygrin

The honeymoon we will be taking a camper up to Hull (we think), across to Rotterdam and up to a place called Walcheren Island in Holland. This is where my grandfather first landed in Europe during WW2. He was one of the first SAS soldiers trained for mountain/parachute/amphibian battle and he went on to capture Walcheren - marching all the way to Bremen and VE day.

We want to go through Germany. We love Germany and have spent a few holidays camping there but this time will be different. I want to pass through Gottingen and call in at Tristar Connection to catch up with Lars Neuffer (and buy some parts for the truck), then onto Wolfsburg to have a nose round the VW Museum.

After that we will work our way to Prague and a little romance for the missus. The route back is undecided but I fancy taking in some of the Alps and making my way up to Belgium and calling in on Mike Plompen at Busman (the missus might draw the line at this one though!).

Any suggestions/thoughts on the wedding would be welcome.

BTW...Prague is lovely and as romantic as it gets. Loads of old buildings, men playing grand pianos on ancient bridges and street artists. Staropramen Brewery is a 10 minute walk and you can get leathered for a fiver in a local bar too.

Understeer: when you hit the wall with the front of the car.
Oversteer: when you hit the wall with the back of the car.
Horsepower: how fast you hit the wall.
Torque: how far you take the wall with you.
