How big do you need the notice board this year ??
Found this invthe Alladins Cave, it might look a mess but as most guys will tell you "I know where everything is, so don't tidy up!!"

It's the later arrivals that we need to know about.

NOTE FOR EVERYONE
Please have you £2 Rally fee ready for Marshalls when you book in.

If you arrive before 2pm, rest assured that the smile you get from the marshals will not be a smile at all, rather a Grimace. Please do not be rude and arrive before you are welcome, Shouldn't have to say it, but some people just can't help themselves (y)

There are quite a few of us solo campers going to Chester and we usually park up together at the end of the Fun area. If there are any newbie solos coming you are welcome to join us. We don't do anything special except chat a lot. 😉
It's not compulsory but please don't sit alone in your vans (unless you want to of course, there's no pressure).
Wendy.

Thanks Wendy.... do you have EHU in that area, as I have booked it...? No idea how the marshalling of the 100+ vans works on the day although I am sure it'll all become clear soon enough... Cheers for the kind gesture.

Hi the Solo area does not have electric, but I'm. Sure when you arrive you can ask and someone will show you were the solo's are and introduced you. Don't worry about the parking we have done it many times before and for bigger numbers, it gets sorted, Funsters always muck in together. 🙂

Have posted previous earlier in the u-shaped lounge some I know don't go in there. So with permission :

To attendee/attendees who may help.
Hi I'm looking, please for a willing member for a funster relay to the SW.


haganap has a couple of 11kg lpg bottles (full) that I'd like to purchase and he can bring them to the Chester meet for hand over.
I'll pay him direct.

I am looking for a willing funster who may be travelling this way (Plymouth)
On their way home or onward travel. I can then meet up to collect by arrangement.
Or I can pick up
Devon Summerset, or CORNWALL OR Even over the bridge
Soon afterwards or a meet up on their way.
If you can help please drop me a pm and we can get something organised.
Tia.

I'm a solo, and have always pitched where I'm put. Marshals are busy enough. Nowhere is far from anywhere/anyone else.
It's not a problem Stephen we have solo Marshalls they are ready to park any solo campers, as you say no one is far from everyone else..
The sun is out here today finger's crossed it's given a reasonable weekend.

Hi Carol and RedFrame, the clutch slave cylinder died on our van yesterday (bloody clutch has only done 100900 miles, hardly even run in !) garage can't fix it till week after next, so we won't make Chester 😭
So sorry get in touch with Briony and ask her for a refund or credit note. Fingers crossed it's done as soon as possible.

I know what we’d do without them - we’d be able to read books/play scrabble and bird watch in peace :rofl: :rofl: :getmecoat:
