Always room for more. If we hit the temperatures of last time the fire pit will be turned into a paddling swimming pool.

I've corrected that for you, I'll see what I can do but him upstairs reckons, there's great demand this weekend, so very scarce, that's why I got my order in early :LOL:

PS. As my 4th booster jab is not until 13.20 on Wednesday near Colchester, I might be late getting down there but I'll give you a ring if it's going to be too late?

Well we made it home!

What another brilliant meet, and a surprise card thank you all for that.
Getting Joycie back into any van after the 2018 shunt, was a big achievement. But she said this was the best Easter away for years and thanks you all for the welcome and the card (I got a slap for letting it out of the bag) nothing new 😅

Many Thanks for you company and to all who organised the fun and games.

Until next time 👍

I didn’t realise your wife was worried, I’m sorry if you had a bad accident once, I do know what that is like and it took me years to get confidence back after mine.
Hope she she has been reminded what camping/ Motorhoming can be about- fun with like-minded people 😀 and we will see you both at another soon

You missed this evenings quiz round hosted by L' Hobo (Owen) not sure which team was the actual winner but it really didn't matter, what a great rally.
Just a quick thank you to all the people that stepped up and made it such a success. I am sure Riverbankannie would have been proud. For those of you still on site, safe travels home tomorrow.

And a SPECIAL Thankyou to Brian & Helen, for all the hard work and assistance they gave and we cannot possibly forget the sterling work performed by the 'Glamourous Assistant' with his Bunny Ears and John for 'manning' the helm in Riverbankannie's enforced absence

Thankyou Everyone!

When I was admitted, just over 2 weeks ago, it never crossed my mind that I would find myself still in hospital and would not even be able to visit you all at the rally.
I am hoping that they will start getting the diagnostic tests going again today but I still don’t know if I am on the list
Glad you all had a good time

Thank you all for the card which John brought in this afternoon.
I am currently struggling with a massive caffeine withdrawal headache as not allowed even a caffeine free tea in preparation for the diagnostic test which they hope will happen on Thursday.

Really enjoyable Rally. Great location. Good to put faces to names and make some new friends. Many thanks to The Quackers (Brian & Helen), John and Owen - not forgetting Annie for all of the pre-Rally organisation…… so sorry you were not able to be present, hope you are out of hospital and fighting fit soon.

Good afternoon.
The Easter rally this year raised a grand sum of £240, a big thank you to all those who contributed. The proceeds were donated to the Great Western Air Ambulance Charity who have recently been in touch, please see below.
