Hi Richie
Welcome to the addiction that is Bongo Ownership! As others have mentioned, the users club Bongofury(.co.uk) is obviously dedicated to just bongos :)

I bought a Bongo last August after getting fed up with 3 succesive sodden tent trips.

OMG i wish i had discovered the Bongo earlier, i am totally hooked, a dream to drive and use.

And yes ... Bongo Fury is THE font of all knowledge and chock full of really great people.

Ours is converted.  We use it mainly for camping for long and short hauls as I have a car and OH has a van for work.  Been as far as the South of France twice with it as well as the length (almost) and breadth of  Britain.  Use it in the summer with drive away awning or quechua pop-up tent depending on the length of time we're away.  In the winter we use it for one or two nights at a time without awning/tent.  Cosy toasting with the heater on.  Never had the courage yet to use without electricity in the winter so always use EHU.  In a couple of weeks we are going to sleep in it on our drive as we are having visitors staying with us.  Love the bongo.
