We experience movie-themed VDubs in the Valley for the joy of 6th
SIMON COOKE
Lights, Camera, Action

For 51 weeks of the year, it’s just an innocent collection of fields in the middle of the Shropshire countryside where the sheep happily do their sheepy things. And then for one week only it plays host to VDubs in the Valley. 2019 was the 6th running of the show and this year the theme was Movies; so I wore my Batman T-shirt and Superman boxers.

That theme tied in nicely with the 50th birthday of Herbie hitting the Hollywood screen and all owners of a Herbie lookalike Beetle got a free entry ticket. They even played The Love Bug on a big screen in the marquee.

Lance & Lisa Beaver tell the story of their...‘Old School' Westfalia Bay

The history of our bus is varied. I heard that it used to belong to a soccer player who lived in it for a while, and a tale of a cross country trip that was taken in it. Since we’ve owned it, we have been to numerous car shows with our car club Kahiko Kula and enjoy that immensely, but taking it camping is our joy.
