Hi,

Sorry for delay in replying,pc was down when we arrived home and took a few days to get sorted.

Thanks for all the lovely comments,sorry we were a bit squashed in,but after many calls to Warners they still did not give us extra space i asked for......i thought it was a great spot though and asked if we can have the same area next year.

It was great to meet everyone again and to meet lots of new faces,what a bonus the gazebo was,...thanks for putting the pic up Dave,Budget insurance have been on and had a look and were impressed.Richard and Mary are taking it to Newbury,thanks both.....thanks to nuke for the use of your genny,thanks to to Tramp,GypsyRose,Lesleylil,nuke for all the wine,beers and treats you gave it was appreciated.

We really enjoyed marshalling our first rally at Peterborough and thanks to everyone for joining us and making it such a success.Thanks Angie and Anne for lovely notes left on the van,sorry we missed you.

The only downside was rubbish left on the rally area that Dave,i and qe2 carried in the rain on Sunday evening to the skips

Thanks Hymmi

You weren't the only ones with limited space, we were also squeezed in a bit this time. Perhpas the attendance at these shows is on the increase with the inevitable consequences. When out and about I scanned the horizion for MHF penants and never saw one? A day visitor spotted mine though and came and asked where you were. Couldn't help him.

I'm sorry that there was some rubbish left . . more by accident that intention I'm sure, collectively we're 'clean' people not common 'travellers', but if rubbish was left intentionally - shame on whoever it was.

Hi Artona,

Nice to meet you,Shonna and your lovely smiling baby girl.

Hi peedee,

Shame you and camoyboy didn't manage to find us,i find it odd that the rally officials don't have maps showing where each club is parked,a few had trouble finding us,for future reference if we can keep same spot it was outside gate 4 opp.the golf driving range..

Hi Vic,

Apart from that the rally area was spotless and we would like to say thanks for that.

Hi Raine,

Hi Hymmi
I have just seen this mention of rubbish left and sent you a PM, however I feel that I should also post here as well.

If the reference to the left rubbish is directed at me for leaving the cardboard tube and box that our awning came in, then I have to publically appologise unreservedly for the fact that you, Dave and Mark had to clear it away (especially in the rain).

Before departing I spoke to the security guy on the gate and asked where to take it and he said that all the skips were full up so I should leave it tucked up close to the fence and it would be cleared away later when the skips were emptied.
I did as instructed and left the cardboard tucked up tight to the fence.
If I did wrong then, again, I do sincerely appologise to you and to MHF for looking like a traveller by leaving my trash behind, however as said I was only doing what I had been told to do.

I hope this clears this matter up.

Hi Keith,

Thanks for pm.

I hope this clarifies things as i took the security guy a coffee over i saw the boxs,i did not know who had left them,that was not the issue,i said about it to the guy and he never said a word,if he had then it would have been clear,he just shook his head,so we picked it up and took it to the skips and still he said nothing,i did take pics of it and yes we were upset at having to carry it up to the skips,someone did say just leave it.....but the last thing we wanted was any complaints to Warners about rubbish left on our area after all we were responsible as the marshalls and that is our job to make sure the site is left clear and that is what we did.

This was nothing personal Keith and i apologise if you thought it was,it was the rubbish that was the issue,i just wanted to show this was not the way to leave a rally area by the pics.

So glad to read your explanation Keith; whilst I would never have raised the subject I was parked closed enough to notice the Regent's 'droppings' and felt that this was completely out of character with the person who was kind enough too help me with the several queries that I have had.

I've banged my head against the wall a few times in contrition Embarassed
