The Malven meet numbers is governed by Warners and the Fun area is full, but just seen on the Malvern Rally thread (see under scheduled Rallys ) that someone has tickets for sale camping with motorhome fun @Ambilkate would be able to tell you how to go about it if you are interested. Really good rally and worth going to.

We have both recently given up work

Simples, go back to work and pay taxes. The pensioners of FUN need your support, you can still use the MH at weekends and feel you've earned the break. We will be ever so grateful.

Hi and :welcome4:

As Carol says, the Fun area at Malvern is full, but you could still park in the general area and walk across. There'll be a stand in the show too for a cuppa and a chat.

First tip. Don't start buying "stuff" just because you think "that might come in useful". We've all got garages full of "stuff" we've never actually found a use for! Wait until you've had a few trips and find out what you need. To start with just carry the basics, raid the home kitchen - only you know what you really need.

Good luck but most importantly HAVE FUN!

Welcome Sue and Lance, @TerryL is so right, we have a lot of unused 'essentials'.

Lance is very grateful for your info TerryL and Scot Sue for the advice, he could see me clocking up the accessories so now he has some back up!
Hildweller no worries, we will still keep you in the manner that you are accustomed to as we still have to pay tax GRRR!
Regards
Sue
