If you just want a place to stay then Sandringham CCC is convenient or for rallies see below.


Thorpe Le Soken and then Brightlingsea run straight after Swaffham.

If youre interested, I'm running the rally at Thorpe le Soken in Essex, about an hour from Swaffham - there's quite a lot of funsters coming straight from Swaffham as it starts immediately following Swaffham, as Swaffham finishes on the monday morning, Thorpe starts on Monday afternoon .....

there are around 40 attending Thorpe this year, and youre welcome to join us, all details are in the rally section .....

 

[cruiser]

So srry but i will still be in hospital

 

[Jaws]

We still have space and will be able to take bookings until Thursday the 14th
Anyone wishing to come need only post on this thread

 

[Jaws]

Just a quick reminder to every one
Please try and bring something for the charity auction !!
Anything you can bring will be appreciated !!

 

[Jaws]

Just had the chip shop call me
The cost of the fish and chips has risen to £10 a head...
I know every ones has paid £9 ... Do not worry about it
I am going to get the extra covered so no one has to pay extra

 

[Larby]

Wife and I are running signing in. We will collect the extra pound or they won’t get their tickets !
We already have containers for keeping the ticket in.
Now we have a container already for donations/ supplements for the extra pound.

Special offer: You can cancel and get a refund but only 50% of the £9

 

[Dawn B]

Thank you
BUT
Make it voluntary Peter.. It is not other folks problem mate...Every one paid and should not have to pay any more if you see what I mean
The chippie should have told me of the increase when it was organised a few weeks ago. Chippie wont move so feel its down to me

At the prices you charge John, we can all afford an extra quid.

You do enough in organising it without being out of pocket but thanks for the offer.

I'm with Larby on this one
(Now that's a sentence I never thought I'd write! )

 

[meanders]

I agree. 'Voluntary' it might be, but you, or the Air Ambulance should not be subsidising anyone. Certainly it's not down to you John. Everyone knows that prices are on the rise. AI tells us 'Fresh fish prices in the UK have risen significantly in early 2026, driven by whitefish shortages. Cod prices have "skyrocketed", with export prices for fresh whole cod up 31% by March, while some shops reported 40% increases, prompting shifts to alternatives like hake.'

I am also with Larby on this.

 

[scotzsue]

Happy tom pay the extra for my

 

[Grummyb]

surely 10 quid isnt expensive for fish and chips I would say anyone that moans about the extra £1 should be sent to Dawn B for a severe flogging
