Please put us down for 4 nights 18-21 instead of just the weekend as now have provisional dates for GCSE exams so hopefully possible.
If EHU is available we would be interested in that too please!

We would like to come to this rally so can we put our names down provisionally please? We are waiting for hospital appointments and whatever happens after that but I'm getting fed up with this state of limbo.:RollEyes: Thanks

Hello all, I've just been in touch with Norden Farm to firm a few points up regards the Rally.

1) A few have mentioned the Restaurant putting food on at some point. Their intention is to put up a large Marquee on the lawn in front of the restaurant throughout the summer & they have no problem providing food for as many as want it as part of a social day or evening. To that end I will let them know our requirements but my thoughts are curry or chilli & rice or jacket potatoes or you could go down the route of a hog roast, depends on what you want to pay etc. so am open to offers on that one.This is one of those not being able to suit everyone all the time moments so will have to go with the most popular choice on food.

2) I have negotiated the use of a field next to our existing Rally field for our use. This field has 15 x EHU's at £3 per night. There are also 4 x EHU's on the Rally field but I'd like to keep one available for use as hopefully we can have a " social Tent / shelter " if anyone has access to one. So first come first served for Leccy but could I suggest that if the intention is to stay just a couple of days you leave it till arrival then if any are available you would be welcome to use it otherwise I could vanish up my own posterior trying to sort it out & be no use to anyone!

3) Ben at Norden Farm (the Deputy Manager) has been very accommodating & dependent on weather is willing to free other areas of the site up as required although he has said that if the Rally coincides with a lengthy spell of real bad weather it may have to be cancelled ( that would be extreme) but I think they are reeling from the wet weather in Dorset at the moment!
A few have asked regards access for RV's, Ben thinks anything up to about 27ft will be fine, the field with 15 x EHU's has better access & if its dry there is good access into the first field. The alternative for larger units is to use a standard site pitch nearby but that would be at the normal site rate.
At the moment there are 61 Vans pledged to come, I have agreed to limit this to 70 Vans in total, I will post a list of those coming in the next week. But if I've put a thanks to your post you are on it!

Really looking forward to this meet. I think, if things go according to plan we will be there for the 1st week 16th to 22nd. Leccy if possible please but not the end of the world if we don't get it.

Is anyone else talking a canoe/kayak?

I'm three score year and ten next year, my licence is revoked.

You youngsters, don't know you're borne.


Absolutely...I reached my allotted span in Oct last.... DVLA said I had to reapply for my licence, wanted medical reports etc., and sent me a letter stating that they appreciated that this was probably a worrying time for me!!!!!!!
Worrying? they must be joking, I`m having the time of my life, even if I am considered to be on borrowed time.
Having reached 70, somehow I was now considered to be a liability on the road, despite having driven over 1,000,000 miles professionally over the last 54 years, accident and prosecution free.
Age is only a number.
PS Tthey gave me my licence back for 3 years, when I have to re apply!!!!

You can hire Canoes at Wareham just up the road at the Quay and have a leisurely paddle up the river Frome towards Poole Harbour, very pleasant!
If anyone is bringing bikes I know some nice routes direct from the site and quiet traffic wise, I'm more than happy to come out with anyone who wants to.
