Went on the New Year Rally at Stokes Prior last year organised by LadyJ
Found it interesting if a bit muddy, met some people we wouldn't have met otherwise and all in all thoroughly enjoyed the experience
So the big (i.e. serious money) question is who is going to arrange this year's rally
We would love to attend a New Year rally (anywhere within reason) but do not have the experience/ability to arrange one ourselves
If we are not careful we will have to join up with some other gang but we are definitely not staying at home with "the dish of salted peanuts and glass of sherry watching the Jimmy Shand Hogmanay Show" as I did with my parents
Let us see if that gets any sort of reaction........ (or not)
Hi Dave & Ellen
I have put this into the Rally Forum so that the rally staff can mull it over...
The problem with rallies at this time of year is basically the weather, and of course the organising of it...... I guess if enough people showed an interest then hopefully we can get something sorted out....
Kelso - Once described by Sir Walter Scott as "The most romantic if not the most beautiful place in Scotland", Kelso, in the Scottish Borders (googled).
Im thinking about organising a New Year meet, prob look into going to Bainland (Woodhall Spa, Lincolnshire), as it has excellent facilities and only uses its hard standing service pitches during the winter. What are peoples thoughts?
I need somewhere local to me as im on duty New Years day, so will need to get to work for 8am... so its gotta be 1 hour away max from Grimsby. Other than that, im quite happy to organise something. Be best to make a weekend of it, Friday til Monday.
Is there anyone who has some influence at a school, etc. Plenty of hardstanding, school hall for entertainment. If enough came the cost would be acceptable, or how about the red cross hall Shane.
A few years ago I was a member of the Volvo 480 Europe Club and they had not had a proper UK meeting so for two years I organised a meet at my house and hired the school field next door.
Here are a couple of threads from the forum for each year to give you some idea of the fun we had:
As you can see the school field is next to the house but is a field not a hard standing area. The cost you will also see stood us at £100 to go towards the school funds. As a governor at the time I new that money would be well received.
So someone out there must have links with a school that has a large hard standing area!
