We have again negotiated that camping will be £10 a night with Jeff being the man to collect that. I'm told there will be no other campers on site for this weekend, the normal price for them being a lot higher.
We are allowed BBQ's this year but not big fires.
If everyone could be a bit discrete with their own drink & not take it over the pub then that would be good.
Access is again through the car park and there should be some of us on site from Tuesday onward.
Chris is supplying wood for the side stands & perhaps some milk for those travelling greater distances to the rally.
It's very possible that breakfasts will be available from the pub this year so don't hesitate to ask at the bar.
See you there!

A great rally, friendly bunch , rally has a laid back feel to it. On the way home I had to stop myself from pulling over on the M40 as there was a deer on the hard shoulder, dead but not mangled but would have just fitted in the new trailer.

A big thanks to everyone for coming along. Weather was fantastic & all went smoothly I think. It's lashing down now as I write this so I think the timing was about right lol.
