We have just had a fantastic rally in the Midlands, and have three rallies on the board for New Year, end of Jan, and one Abroad.
So time to plan another......
Dates are Fri 31st March, Sat 1st April, Sunday 2nd April and Monday 3rd April. Three nights will be included in the price, but you do not have to stay all three if not convenient.
Venue is the Bubble Car Museum, Cranwell, Lincolnshire. NG34 8EY
The rally field does not have hard standing, but is always dry, and can accommodate the largest of vehicles. It can take approx 50 motorhomes. There are loos, showers, water, and facilities for emptying waste - but it must be biodegradable ie. no blue fluid.
There are very few electric points, so please assume none will be available.
The site is next to a working farm, so a tractor is available should anyone need a pull. Also a 4 x 4 available in the rally field if needed. There is Heavy Duty charging equipment and a couple of loan leisure batteries available in case of need.
I will try to arrange for a marquee to be put up with tables and chairs, and this will be available for the duration of the rally. On the Saturday we may be able to get a few traders in to add a bit of interest.
There is a very large BBQ on site, and I would recommend that we use this facility as it is provided.
The Bubble Car Museum will be open just for us, but it is not obligatory that you visit. Hopefully open on Saturday for us.
On Sunday, there will be afternoon tea arranged on site on the Double Decker Bus, but this may carry a small charge in addition to site fees.
There is not an awful lot to see within waliking distance of the site, but RAF Cranwell is just down the road, and they do arrange private tours of the college. If there is interest, I will see what I can do.
Nearby is a Spar Shop for food.
If you want to drive, Newark is just 10 miles away and boasts the Air Museum. Sleaford also close by and has a working mill and restaurant.
The approx cost for site for max of 3 nights per van will be Ģ20 but will (of course) not include electric. It will include marquee, BBQ facilities (food will be provided by me if we get a good turnout), visit to the bubble car museum, perhaps a tour of the RAF College (solely dependent on interest and IF possible) and Sunday tea on double decker bus (although this may carry surcharge if numbers not sufficient)
This has been booked as a rally with the museum curators, and it will be a firm booking by Christmas if a deposit has been paid.
If you are interested in the above, Please put your name down in the rally box (give me time after this post to fill it in!!).
I will then need a Ģ5 deposit per van by Dec 25th. Final monies to me by end of Feb please.
I am hoping for a good turnout, and this rally will be as busy or as chilled as you want to make it. There will be no role calls! I can't guarantee the weather, but it has been known to be quite nice at that time of year..........
Yes yes yes . . . another get together rally, and the bonus of dragging my other half round the Bubble car musuem [I used to own a Messershmitt bubble car - wish I still had it] just like an aircraft, the passenger sat behind the driver, just enough room for 2 people + tesco carrier bag of luggage but not enough room to sleep in
Lets hope we get as many [if not more] as last wekend's rally - we're looking forward to it.
Cheque will be in the post within the week
Vic & Sylvia
. . . . er, who do I send the cheque to ?
