Yeah, FB is where a lot of people are. What page/pages you join up to depends on what your interests are and even where you live - there are a lot of
local ones for local groups to stay in contact.
Some of the ones I am a member of are:
https://www.facebook.com/groups/aussieveedubbers/
https://www.facebook.com/groups/Queensland.VW/?multi_permalinks=3863368513712...
https://www.facebook.com/groups/337501696320626
https://www.facebook.com/groups/696877697020516/?multi_permalinks=54504855216...

https://www.facebook.com/groups/696877697020516
https://www.facebook.com/groups/gcdubclub
https://www.facebook.com/groups/german.look.vw
There are many others, and to be honest, they are very easy to use

beetleboyjeff - July 3rd, 2021 at 08:59 PM
Waiting on a new engine and a new centre console. Last week my R & P failed, so now I am waiting on a transaxle repair.
Otherwise, having a ball and hoping it will be going for the Volkswagen Spectacular

Who does your gearbox work Jeff?
beetleboyjeff - July 5th, 2021 at 06:20 AM
I was using Dave Buttler until he retired, but now I am back using Ron Schmidt at Kempsey.

A lot of it came from over 50 years of Volkswagen sickness, some from my workshop, some from barls builds and the rest just general accumulation and
my Dad's 75 years of collecting bits and pieces from all sorts of cars and stuff. A veritable treasure trove that is like a trip in history with a
million memories.Aaaahhhhhh 
Good to see you back on here Penguin, hope you and the family are well.

What's Face Book 
Fossil - August 23rd, 2021 at 05:41 PM
A deterrent to members has been that the software driving this place is out of date and posting became all too hard.
If an update or new forum software was put in place and everything ported across then this place could return to it's former status.

Well said Bert
Still very hit and miss for me being able to post
Still get "You have not entered a valid message" of something of the sort
barls - August 24th, 2021 at 11:42 AM
I've found that it doesn't like when you paste things in.
Fossil - August 25th, 2021 at 06:39 AM
Anyone else see this notice when they go to a section - it appears just under the title of the section they are in.
Notice: Undefined variable: subforum in /var/www/forums.aussieveedubbers.com/public_html/viewforum.php(657) : eval()'d code on line 3
Fossil - August 25th, 2021 at 06:44 AM
Then there is all the "Queries" information I take from the coding at the bottom of the page
hulbyw - August 25th, 2021 at 08:51 AM
Yes to both the above issues
barls - August 25th, 2021 at 07:17 PM
yep and andrew is aware of both issues. i just don't know if he has figured out how to fix them or if and upgrade would fix them
hulbyw - August 29th, 2021 at 09:27 PM
