Morning all and HNY to everyone.

We have just left - sorry for not coming round to say goodbye but Cliff’s manflu is in full blown mode and he just wants to get home. It feels really weird not spending the hour it usually takes to say goodbye to everyone, but thanks for a brilliant time - we had a blast! xx

It was great to see (and hear!) you again. Hope Cliff is feeling better soon..

Many thanks to Robin and Hilary meanders for creating a wonderful party once again.

And the musicianship was amazing!

Ah so now we know who to blame for the highly contagious manflu

Thanks to all for their efforts to make the last few days such a success, and particularly to Robin and Hilary for all their scheming over the last few months.

We've had an absolutely brilliant time. The bands were great, the quizzes impossible, and the company second-to-none .
It's been lovely meeting old friends and putting new faces to names.
Many thanks to Robin and Hilary for making it happen. ?.

A big 'Thank You' to Hillary and Robin ( meanders ) for organising such a wonderful rally in our home town we had a lovely time, especially that darts competition

Sadly due to Lesley collapsing we were unable to do the second half of the Saturday evening music leaving Martin & Shirley ( martin1485 ) to soldier on, on their own after all the shown must go on – sorry both.

A very BIG thank you to ( Carol ) who was first on the scene when Lesley collapsed and then to the two lovely NHS Nurses who looked after her as she recovered enough to go home. Sorry ladies I do not even know your names but a heartfelt thank you from us both - NHS Angels.

We ended up calling the Ambulance at about 02:30 who arrived quickly and diagnosed food poisoning etc, they recommend going to Hospital but warned that on NYE at the infamous Royal Shrewsbury Hospital this would mean a very long wait on a trolley in a corridor. We opted to stay home and see how it goes and let her GP advise after that. Lesley is feeling a lot better today so she is slowly on the mend J

See you a Rally, somewhere later this year. Les & Rodd

[Poodlepower]

Had another lovely time at the New Year Meet, you are such a friendly crowd. Huge thanks to Robin and Hilary for all their hard work. Loved the Musical evening, such talented people and the band on New Year's Eve too. But we needed more on the dance floor!!
PS. I promise never to have another go at darts ever again.

 

[rosalan]

A simply wonderful rally!
Hillary and Robin seemed to be everywhere twice, great marshalling!
The place was alive with everyone enjoying themselves and meeting so many new friends; wonderful.
The organised music and the spontaneous singing late at night by Greengrass and a petite lady with her delightfully risque ditty were just some of the highlights of a great rally. Thank you all!

Well yet another great New Year meet at Shrewsbury.
Our special thanks to Robin & Hilary for such a well organised meet, there was as usual always something going on in the evenings, the days were bright & sunny and very laid back.
Thanks to all the musicians, you really did make then evenings special, you are a truly talented bunch.
I hope everyone got home safely, it took us 4 hours with a coffee stop, and we enjoyed a nice steady plod along some of the normally busiest motorways, so luck was with us today.
We met some truly wonderful people, we wish you all a wonderful 2020, thanks & best wishes to all.
Les & TinaL

Thanks Robin and Hilary for all your hard work. We had a great time and really enjoyed ourselves. Great to meet new funsters and catch up with old.
Sorry some were poorly. Wishing you all a happy, healthy 2020.

 

[meanders]

Thank you all for the kind comments.

We have just sent £135 profit from the Bacon Rolls, raffle, donations etc to Jim for Katie's Myaware charity via Just Giving, so thank you all for your generosity.

We had a great time with you all and can't believe quite how kind the weather was to us.

Thanks due to everyone that helped,

1. The Musicians..... two wonderful nights and an afternoon of jamming.
2. The Humpers..... Those that took all the kit up and downstairs, moved tables, chairs etc.
3. The ad-hoc Marshalls who freely gave their time to assist with parking, hook-ups, explaining where things were etc.
4. The Decorator ... a young lass who helped set the room up before the main event.
5. The Caterers ...... What a spread and so little wasted
6. The Directors ..... Who helped those on their first trip to Shrewsbury with directions into town etc.
7. The Carrier ... He who took me to the Cash and Carry and Tesco's.
8. The Grillers ... Up early New Years day to cook the bacon rolls.
9. The Clearer Upper's ..... those who helped sort out the mess we jointly made in the room.
10. The Darts players and non-players, and organiser ... What fun we had.
11. The Nurses ... Who willingly dropped into role when someone was taken ill.
12. Everyone that participated.

You know who you are, so take the pat on the back please. Without all of you, the rally would not have happened.

We took just about 5 hours to get home, but the journey was fine..... just took a long time.

Will let you know if we plan to do it again next year.

Happy New Year to all .... Hilary and Robin

 

[Chocy boy]
