It's all already been said above, however, Rita and I would like to add our thanks for all the hard work and organisation put in by everybody concerned. It was a huge success, and all those involved should be proud of themselves, and not forgetting Frank & Doreen for their lovely generosity on Frank's Birthday. (y)

I (Jock) am just sorry that I couldn't have been more hands on at the time, with the manual stuff. :(

A special thanks to Popeye, for the much appreciated Thetford wheels. ;)

Cheers for now,

Jock & Rita. :)

How can I add to all that has been said. It is a long while since Dave and myself have had such a lovely 2 weeks holiday. Home and back to reality. Thanks all for all the great effort put in to make a holiday to remember.

What a week - just fantastic. Thank you to Jes and Lin, plus all the others that put so much effort into making this last week one of the best meets we have been to.

I don't think we have ever laughed so much as we have this week and the 'Fun Monty' will stay with me forever (scared for life).

Above comments seem to say all I can think of saying as well, :)

Brilliant time had by Mum and I, thanks to all those Funsters/Friends, who included Mum in their conversations etc; She's extremely grateful, as with her sight gone in both eyes, now, I'm thinking its not a happy place to be;
(and yes, she did ask for a preview of Fun Monty kit, I wore later.......:LOL:)

Jez and Lin, whose days were longer than our's by several hours, I think; THANK YOU.

To my FUN MONTY team mates, NO dutch courage OR SOCKS ;), next year.............:whistle: :):)

Great to meet so many friends again, see some of you again soon. (y)

Yes, you did leave it behind! I picked it up and put it by the bins. I don't suppose it's worth the diesel costs to go back and get it though!

I would like to add my thanks to Jez and Lin, Pat and Trish, our superb caterers (I'm another very satisfied vegetarian :clap2:), Steve and Denise, Elvis, Matt Black and of course the Fun Monty :Eeek:. It was such a fun week and somehow you managed to fix the weather again!
Thanks as well to Colin for fixing my water problems, saving me yet another trip back to the dealers. ::bigsmile:

quite a few years now, and loving every minute..
feeling just a little sad after the two gloriously friendly and lovely meets in beautiful dorset..
whilst it was good to meet up again with friends made last year at norden, it was horrible having to say goodbye knowing that it is probably going to be another year before meeting up again with most of you.. :(

however, there are wonderful memories to be savoured of the fun and laughter that we had there, and very grateful thanks to all for the kindnesses shown to me by so many of you..:thanks3:

the biggest thanks though have to go to jez and lin and all those others who worked so hard to provide a truly memorable experience for us all with entertainment that was second to none and food to die for too on just a tenner, shining stars they truly are..(y)

Aw thanks Dryad and for all the other lovely comments from those who came to Corfe. Of course we couldn't do it without the help from everyone concerned, particularly our good friends Pat & Trish , Keith & Sue and Steve & Denise but also everyone else who pitched in and helped in some way shape or form.
However well (or otherwise) its organised its only as good as folk make it and as per last year just about everyone came to enjoy their selves which makes all the hard work and preparation a pleasure. We will need to think about next year before too long and try work out how to match this one without becoming too repetitive, there were things that worked better than 2014 and a few others which in our opinion didn't so will need to get our thinking caps on. Any suggestions are most welcome!!
So if we don't see you before enjoy the rest of the summer and hopefully see you again in 2016.(y)
BTW Happy Birthday Dryad :birthday:

Just got back home and it has all been said. It was lovely to see folk from last year and to meet new folk as well. Jez and Lyn worked really hard and I know they had a lot of support from Tricia and Pat and Denise and Steve but it was a fab meet. This one has quickly become one of my favourites. Would love to do it again next year. I'm still chuckling at Matt Black he was fab. Well done and long may it continue

I have been home since Monday evening but sadly without Land-Line or Broadband and no Mobile Boost so pretty much out of touch with you all.

I spent three days with Old Mo and lots of you lovely people at Bag-Wash Farm near Weymouth, in fact I was the last to leave apart from Mo. We made new Friends and valuable acquaintances in Armytwowheels, who will live to regret helping us and so many others with Colin's impressive engineering skills. What he gave me was the confidence that the route I was going down was the correct one and Sandra gave me is beyond words, thank-you both so much.

Then on to Corfe for what is sure to be one of the best meets ever. Met so many new people, some of whom plied me with Sambuca, Poppi and J, Steve and Denise, two extremely talented funsters, Les who is bringing my dog (maddie) up for me, Arthur Bognor and arthur01.

I have decided that to list everyone is far too dangerous as I'm bound to forget someone, but I knew I was going to enjoy meeting Jock and Rita, and was looking forward to meeting again so many from my brief visit last year.

Elvis was great, the funster Generosity (Philbo) was amazing, I could have listened to Matt Black at the piano all week and all of you wonderful people who didn't rip the p1$$ too much following the scratch from the tight entry on our new MoHo Ruby. The Hog Roast was outstanding, well done Keith and you lovely ladies pitching in.

Cutfinger sold his wife's bike and by the look of his Avatar

he must have spent it all on this new to him MoHo...........

Jez and Lin have made one enormous fatal error; inviting us to York in July for guided tour of the city and a crash course in local Dialect.


Thank you all for making a great week in fabulous surroundings.

Regards Griff and Jackie
