We have just returned from a very wet Newbury. Thanks to the marshalls for getting us parked up late Friday. Not too many traders but enough for what we wanted - not to spend too much Had a SOG fitted after reading all the positive posts on here - and getting a good deal from the Airide people for fitting it. Also got a couple of high back chairs - now have a couple of folding Ali chairs in first class condition for sale - £30. All in all, a cheap weekend seeing as I spent less than £250.

We were parked behind you and I must say how impressed we were with the Air Ride fitters working on your van in all that rain. Looked a really good professional job. What a shame about all the bad weather as I found the Show to be quite good and the traders very friendly. I did better than you and only managed to spend about £45 on bits and pieces and managed to suppress an urge to up-grade my van. We had a good day out in Newbury town yesterday. I thought last night's entertainment was very good and Tom O'Conner was excellent - very funny without any blue of smutty jokes. Lady J did a great job as our marshal and made us very welcome. Over all - despite the weather- a good week-end away.
Just back from Newbury as well. I was impressed with the SOG fitting to Daves van. They did a good job especially in the rain. It seems like we were all watching them. Thanks to Jackie, John and Alan for the Marshalling and to all who entertained my Hubby last night. He did try to move in with Dave and Eddi this morning, Not going to park next to you two again At one stage I thought we'd had a Maxview fitted. We even have the same front mat. Thanks for the eggs dave had them this morning. See everyone soon.
Also just arrived safely home from Newbury.. As newbies this was our first rally and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thanks to all those who made us feel welcome and to the marshalls for there good work.
Did spend a bit more than intended, but I guess we still need lots of gadgets.

Well, the outstanding feature at Newbury this year was certainly the weather!
The show was just as good as usual but of course it's much more difficult to enjoy it when it's blowing a gale and pouring down. Unfortunate for those members who joined us for the first time as there were few opportunities to get together and get to know you all, don't be discouraged folk the weather isn't this bad all the time.
Well done Jacquie as usual for braving the elements.
BTW: Why is it that vans only arrive at rallies when you are 1) eating your lunch, 2) you've just nipped to the loo or 3) it's just started to pour down?

Well I sailed home on roads that really did resemble a pond.
Thanks to LadyJ & John, also Gaspode (Ken), for the marshalling and the information about where to find what.
I only arrived Saturday so missed the Friday night, Saturday night was entertaining though in the beer tent…images are etched into my mind I may never be able to remove
Spent some money on odd items but resisted the temptation of the shinny new motor homes, I suppose it helps if your really happy with your camper/motor home
Thanks all, sorry not to have met a few more members but the weather was a factor, not very nice standing around talking when the rain was lashing down.
Hi Linda (LC1962) I hope you had a good weekend on your stall, nice to meet you eventually

656, Thanks for the eggs and steak Dave. I expect once you have had everything fitted you will exchange the van and start all over again

Hi Ian
No chance of me changing the van, Eddi would do her nut. Mind you, if I could find a kon-Tiki with everything fitted that we have now, she may change her mind.
