The next meet organised by Sandra will be called the "£1 meet" well done Sandra it is the best meet we have been to, we really enjoyed it and will definitely be back next year (with my pockets filled with £1 coins)
Watching Sandra I now know how to order a discount Chinese meal and how to raise £301 for Guide Dogs for the blind from only 30 mhs.
Thanks to all the Funsters who were all so friendly.

Well that was a great weekend:D....think I've already thanked @irnbru & @Graham and Jane but just wanted to say it again:glitter:
We've met some lovely funsters and not laughed as much for ages......looking forward to next years already (&yes, we'll start a £1 fund too:LOL:)

........see a few of you soon at the Music & Mechanicals meet where I've kindly rented out Les again for bbq duties.....and it'll coincide with his birthday so I'll have to organise tea & cakes or something a wee bit stronger;)

On our 2nd MH now a AutoTrail Savannah which we're absolutely delighted with
Just arrived home from one of the best weekends ever. A fantastic friendly fun laden meet organised by that shy, demure, retiring, quiet ,unassuming and pocket emptying lady Sandra and her great team. Made some lovely new genuine friends(and that process cost money too!)
Thanks again Sandra you're a real topper--already looking forward to next years meet.

We'd just changed drivers when you sailed past on the A66....:LOL: What I can't work out is how we caught Brendan up on the M74 but he was still on site when we left:ROFLMAO:

Thanks to Sandra and co for rounding off our tour of the highlands. The Falkirk meet was a real treat, we really enjoyed the weekend. Nice to meet new funsters, catching up with old funsters and potentially paying the price (£1) for forgetting funster names also.
Well done Sandra and team and all the funsters at the meet:):):).

Thanks from us as well. Our first "real" meet and we had a great time. Hope to do it all again next year and have already started the £1 fund.

I also have some ideas for "fun and games" for next year :)

It's those wormholes in the time/space continuum.
But then I used the old fashioned style to pass you again on the A66 during your driver changeover/ dog comfort break.

I didn't want to startle anyone by sounding the horn as you were out with the dog.
I had seen you go past my 'driving miss daisy' style earlier.

Thanks for all the nice messages. Its you lot that turned up that deserves a pat on the back. (y)
A few of you said the name game did make you try to know more folk so hopefully it helped you all get to know each other more while making most pockets £1lighter:)
Thanks for all the donations received or persuaded to part with:D including those from absentees @andy63 and my mum.
Special thanks to @Graham and Jane for parking up the vans and collecting the ££££s , Les and George for all the BBQs, And to Simon for teaching the ceilidh dances. Can't wait to do it all again. And I see we seem to have recruited a new member due to our meet(y)

Ok i have to place a post on here as we are now back home, this rally was our first ever motorhome rally and we both had an amazing time, we cant thank everyone personally but one person deserves a special thank you and that is you Sandra, from the minute we arrived you made us more than welcome and ensured we knew what was happening right through the meet, everyone was so friendly and welcoming we were astounded, If i am honest i was so nervous about coming if Peter had let me i wouldnt have come, but now i cant wait to go to the next one we have booked into at Hartlepool. Thanks again everyone the whole weekend was a blast and we look forward to meeting up with everyone again , Oh and Charley is absolutely shattered and is already away in the land of nod!xxx

Bit late in posting this but no 3G or wifi made it difficult. ;)
Thanks to everybody that attended the meet and made it a great event but as others have said, a special thanks must go to Sandra @irnbru for great organisation and extortion skills :LOL::LOL:
Hopefully see you around sometime during the coming year and will definitely be back next year.
