Yup, thanks to K & J-cubed for hosting and to all for their company. I found it a very relaxing weekend; just the job after a crazy couple of weeks at work and home.
Plenty of feet-up time, cosy in the van with silent leccy-heating, reading & catching up on John Deed & Desperate Housewives, the constitutional ad-hoc groups clustered outside vans, natter in the bar and popping just a few yards from the van to spot the odd useful thing on the stands.
I didn't take many photos, in fact most were of a jungle-airbrushed van that probably should go in the Strange-but-True gallery!
Well our first foray intpo a MHF meeting came and went.
Everyone we met offered freindly welcomes and some very useful advice (Like never eat yellow snow).
And yes I as a few others did experience a little flurry and I'll stand by that under torture.
A little trepidation with Kids and Weather but need not have worried, they both loved the motorhomes and clambered through them finding things most adults would not even think of. They were in their element when they discovered that they didn't have to pay the ticket prices and bartered a few discounts when off on their own. Although what we are going to do with seventeen motorhomes we don't know.
Nice to see Jessica, although as Mum was in 'Chat' mode most of the time (LOL) we didn't like to intereupt and make our prescence known.
We didn't make the foray into the bar for reasons we have explained on this site before but it wasn't anything personal we can assure you.
Once again Thank You to everyone and lets hope for a succesful 'Newark Experiment'.

Shona suddenly said on the way back she was expecting to bump into you all. I think the sign of a great weekend is that it seems to finish before it has started . Will have to make sure we all meet up at Newark
Hi, also like to thank the organisers & in fact everyone we met for being so friendly & helpful.
Felt a little better this A.M. as I checked the German websites and with the extras we got not a great deal diff. in price from importing myself.
This elation was short lived as I'm now in the process of knocking down approx. 20 ft. of 6ft. high wall as i'm 1ft short in the parking area the wall rebuild will be at a later date.
Still thanks again for a great w/end.
I would like to thank you all for turning up at Shepton and making it another smashing weekend, another lot of really nice folks.
Sorry we couldn't fit you in Slaphead as it happened we had 2 that didn't turn up so you could have come on with us, but as they hadn't let me know they were not attending we had to keep there pitches.
Zoro Steve it would have been cheaper to have bought a pole to stick your pennant on
G2EWS Chris let me know when you will be appearing again and I will send you a map
As others have said there didn't seem to be as much there this year but then the weather could have put some off, the wind was really bad on the Thursday. Shepton in September is a much bigger show and hopefully the weather will be great like last year.
Our thanks to Jaqui and Jen for an extremely well organized rally. Especially as I was able to snatch a hook-up at the last minute. We really enjoyed the evening gatherings in the bar and meeting friends old and new.
Am spending the weekend measuring and re-measuring the drive to make sure the new baby will fit in.

An oversight on my part from my earlier post, the evenings up in the bar were great, relaxing and very enjoyable company.
Also, I have to thank Gaspode (Ken) for his assistance in helping with my Maxview crank-up sat/dish, using a pace SKY mini box I was struggling to get it set up for the first time since fitting it.
Along came Ken and within minutes I was watching sky, he did make it look so easy and to be honest, once you know what to do, it is, as I found out after lowering the dish when I went to bed and raised/tuned it the next morning, so simple then.
I just have to look on the Internet now to see if I can buy some patience, as I was in too much of hurry when tuning it in.
MHS…Rob ps…thanks also to Gaspode for the loan of the sky remote, I left mine at home …I was on my own and we all know men don’t remember things…don’t we?
