Just a thought and forgive me if this has been covered in previous posts
Since joining this site in Feb 2005 it has clearly grown and there are members from all corners of the UK and beyond.
I notice that there are quite a few rallies arranged for us to potentially meet, although many seem to be a little further from me than a short weekend would allow, I live in the South and many are in the Midlands (not bad) and further North (not so good)
I guess the real question here is it time to develop say 5 or 6 regions where each co-ordinate rallies and events under MHF, this does not stop other regions attending other regional events but I guess what I am thinking of is this might make the rally and event activity increase, possibly increase membership to MHF
I am just throwing and Idea around I am sure some of you will take this further - one way or another

We are in Dorset, and would welcome some meets a bit nearer, so I'll keep my eyes open for further development - great idea. Actually we are about to go to the New Forest next month. Any recommendations?
(Site must be capable of taking a 32' RV)

I think it's a great idea we usually travel to the Midlands to MHF meets and rallies, but like yourself it's a long trip for us northerners down there.
Something arranged a little nearer would be good Apart from the York show, and Moffatt (Scotland)I can't remember one held up here

Living in Dorset also I have often thought on similar lines. I and the wife attended one of Keith and Sharons meets at Rivendale in the Derbyshire peaks district last year. It was great to meet everybody there including Russell & Oscar, Geo & Pam, Stewart (Artona) & family, Snelly & family to name just a few. It was a long way to go just for a weekend so we made a week of it and travelled on a bit further and made a nice break of it. Had never visited that area before and travelled quite a lot of miles around the peaks in our A framed car just taking the scenery in.
In Dorset we have a number of nice sites that do special deals out of season if you stay a few days. Littlesea at Weymouth is one such site and could accomodate large numbers for a rally meet at reasonable rates.
Maybe with LadyJs help we could get something organised for late september or October for us southerners.

I found the site I was thinking of, it is a Forestry Commission site called Longbeech.
No hook up but good size pitches, I think they could take an RV up to 34 to 36ft but if I organise something I shall check this out before hand.
It might be a little to late to organise things before July where it all goes mad but it might be worth trying something for beginning of September where the weather should be still quite warm
The reference to LadyJ is because she is the rally co-ordinator>>>????
Although most of you semi-retireds might be off to Southern Europe come September>?
If anyone is interested In attending a simple get together down in the New Forest Area then let me know
Kind regards
Hugh
