Good News, I had an email from Sally today and they have agreed to set us up a marquee at some of their shows providing we turn in the numbers (which I hope to revise down a little for this year)
This will make our gatherings at their shows even better, and it will be great to have a meeting place from when the show starts to the finish on Monday Mornings... while at the same time keeping rain out of the curry and the Ukulele and Guitar strings warm
a BIG Thank you to Sally and Warners, this gesture is very much appreciated:thumb:

Good Morning Jim
Happy New Year to you and your family.
I have looked into the cost of a marquee for your camping areas at our shows and it would be roughly £1,300 plus vat. What do you intend to do in the marquee, I am thinking licenses and licensed areas on venues if you are having a bar and live music. If it is a get together and bring your own booze not a problem with licenses?
I have looked at historic numbers you deliver to our shows and I do know you work hard to deliver Motorhome Fun Members and work equally as hard to ensure they have a good time.
I would be willing to get you a marquee erected in your areas at our shows for you to use for your own club purposes. What I would look for in return are a guaranteed amount of ralliers and I would need to look at where we positioned your club. Malvern for example is a very tight show on space and I propose we put you in the field over the road. This would more than likely be exclusive to your club so you could make as much noise as you wished, however, dependent on what you have planned I would need to look at licensing the area/s.
Numbers I would look for you to drive would be:
Peterborough 120
Newbury 100
Malvern 180
Lincoln 120
I need to guarantee these numbers to cover the cost of the marquee. I can cancel the marquee a month prior to the show if it is not needed because numbers are not achieved so I would set a deadline of a month prior to catch up with you on numbers and whether we are erecting a marquee or you are to bring your own. ..... snip...
