2014 Racing Rally

Eight vans attended the Racing Rally at Market Rasen Racecourse.

Interestingly we had five twin-axle Fleetwoods on site.

Friday morning we joined in with the Worlds Largest Coffee Morning in aid of Macmillan Cancer Support for which we raised £60.

Saturday was race day and ten of us went to enjoy the atmosphere. There were a few stalls with local produce, wine tasting and bread making which we enjoyed immensely.

The weather was glorious on Sunday and everyone relaxed around their vans until Peter fetched his radish punch for Alan to taste, then we all gathered to share in the fun and whatever we wanted to contribute, be it homemade wine, fruit cake, cheese & biscuits or just tea or coffee.

For Harold's birthday on Monday we went to a local garden centre for lunch and ended the rally Tuesday morning with Flag, a farewell cuppa and chat!

    What a great rally it was, the weather was very kind to us, although quite chilly one night! Can't wait for the Christmas rally !! Thanks to Steph & Tony for all their hard work. Sue & Leigh
