Just to let you know that we won't be able to make it tomorrow as the van is going into the garage in the morning.

Sorry about that.

Pitches all pegged out (thank you Simon), field reasonably dry as the forecasted heavy rain didn't reach North Muskham yesterday afternoon.
We are almost ready to party.

PLEASE BE AWARE THAT THE A1 AT NEWARK IS ALWAYS BUSY BUT MORE SO ON FRIDAYS.

We have to mark out pitches in order to get 50 odd vans on to the field and ensure they are all not on top of one another and not packed in like sardines. In addition there is a statutory requirement to facilitate access/egress for emergencies whether it be Fire Brigade, Ambulance, or Police. There is no resemblance to the organisation you mentioned. This rally is run according to the Motorhome Fun rally handbook.

I was only pulling your leg :D

Maybe a bit early for my type of humour ?

An awfull lot of work goes into the setting up of this field to make it safe and as little damage to the grass as possible .
Drive in Park up. Drive off . No shunting about .

Indeed. I’d like my marked pitch to be south facing with a picket fence, a water feature to the north and a small but accessible moat to keep out the riff raff (drawbridge for invited guests)
Oh and if you could label it “HRH DUKE OF YORKSHIRELAND” - that would be nice.

Ta in anticipation......

Thats fine if you're approaching Newark from the West, but to make matters worse there is major sewer work going on in Newark town centre, which compounds what is already a terrible place for hold ups.

On the way in we can thoroughly recommend Hardys farm shop cafe. 2 large sausage cobbs and 2 lattes for just over 11 quid. Needed it after 3 and half hour drive.

Ken is already aware of this but we are sorry to say we are unable to join you all this weekend due to problems with Merilyn's 93 year old dad. We had hoped to pop down on Saturday night for a flying visit but even that looks unlikely now. One good point is that at least I won't have to suffer about a month of knee pain after all the dancing like I did last year.:)
Anyway, we hope you all have a fantastic weekend.
