Hi guys just back from a fantastic week at the stratford show. We were down to join the rally site but our hymer doesn't come with a snorkel or any other amphibious attachments. Thanks to Richard and Mary they tried their hardest bless!! but the whole thing was a hotch potch of clubs and organisations scattered hither and thither Confused

As we had to go out on other business on Wed and thursday they put us in the day car park and to be frank it was the best place to be. Dry, quiet and peaceful but still only a couple of hundred metres away from the action. The sun shone on thursday,friday Saturday and Sunday and I must say that Linda and I both thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Didn't make the Barbie on Sat as we were organising some financing on a new (to us) Hymer. Thanks again to the rally marshals I'm sure the smoking sausages tasted really good.

Hi All

Just got back from a very hot and enjoyable weekend at Stratford.

Shame we weren't camped near each other but at least we did get to see some of you which was great.

Sorry could not make BBQ on Saturday night, we had 5 members of our family turn up for the day on there Motorbikes, so ended up feeding them before they left.

All being well, the next rally field will not be so water logged.

Many thanks to Richard and Mary for trying their hardest to sort this out for us. I have to say I wasn't sure whether to go or not but boy am I glad I did. What a fantastic time we both had, fantastic weather and even better company.

The BBq was a good night and Ive had my eyes opened to just what can be done on a BBQ by John AKA JAKJON. It was an absolute delight to see him in action, and i recommend him to cook for all events he goes on. Hes even learnt how to dry the dishes !!!!! Laughing

Grath it was really nice to meet you and your wife and Im sure ill be messaging you soon as Ive forgotten some of the details you told me.

For those I didn't speak to sorry but Im a bit shy ....

See you all again soon
Im off for a courvoisier... Laughing

Despite all the problems with the pitches, our weekend turned out very well indeed. What a wonderful evening Saturday proved to be. Thanks Richard for popping over with the invitation for the BBQ and we are sorry we were unable to make the trek across - next time hopefully.

We were gobsmacked to find ourselves parked next door to Dave (and Wendy) who had stopped for a chat when we were both parked up at the Messe, Friedrichshafen last weekend, at the 50th Party for Hymer!!! Talk about a small world.................

Another thanks to Richard and Mary for moving their van, both to let us in and let us out of our parking space. We enjoyed the BBQ and meeting up with Carol and Bill again, plus some new faces. We saw the couple with the Hymer parked opposite having a Sog fitted, good move that, well worth the money.
That was the last trip in the current Rapido, we are waiting now for Wokingham Motorhomes to confirm our new one is ready, and we are off to swap them over. Hopefully the next time we see you all we will be in our shiny new 7097F, unless the gearbox has exploded or the engine has rusted away!!

Hi All

Just arrived home

What a bad start to the week but must admit with great patience & a lot of shuffling of M/H we ended up having a great time, so thanks everyone hope to see you all soon.

As for John AKA Jakjon he is still in need of a bit of training so we have nominated him to do the cooking & washing up at the Flamborough rally Razz

Also thanks to all those who bought T-Shirts we will hopefully get a pic of you in them next time.

Regards

Many thanks to Richard & Mary for the BBQ and friendly welcome. Good to meet everyone again. Luckily the traditional Stratford Show weather arrived when we did. Had a great time and didn't spend very much (not for the want of trying though)
