Hi. I was in the middle of getting something together with Uncle Norm the Eastern rally co-ordinator for a MHF's meet here at Aldbrough, it is then he found out about his cancer so I thought he has enough on his plate and we can always wait till later.. We all know what happened next. And such a lovely bloke and family, we could call it the Uncle Norm Meet.. ray. Sounds good Ray. Do you want to announce it on FACTS? Could do with some feedback from others on here really. Its gone a bit quiet

Hi.
I fly back to Portugal tommorow at 12.15 hence the push for a decision, I do not know what wifi I will have if any when I get there... Soooo can you at least drum up some interest, maybe some out of the fishing forum part would like to go as the lakes should be good then, the carp go mad feeding up before they start to spawn. It would be a good weekend boozing, or for whatever length of time anybody wants to stay, as it is quite pleasent round Aldbrough and the surrounding district.
Booking on the site is via the web site for "Aldbrough Caravan Park Ltd" google it I can't do links with the Kindle. If I know the numbers I will ring them and try to get a bit off the fees when anybody books, let the camp site worry about getting the money off folk!..
ray.

Cant find any info ray apart from the statics. There is one review (not a very good one) on uk campsites. Is it an actual campsite with tents and stuff? IF so would we not be better with our own rally field? Im thinking this could also be an opportunity for the long awaited music meet as well. Cant say I like the idea of sharing the field. Or am I wrong?

We would be happy to have it wherever the majority feels is central to all, but not sure if we can make it due to some ancient rellies being seriously ill, that and Seriously, who'd want to be in the same place as some of you lot

There seems to be a cunning plan to move potential venues further away from Devon. Is this a ploy to try and stop me attending?

Am still recovering from the WTF are you trying to do about looking for the sheep one night stand Anyway on a serious note We in wherever "we in" is. And it will be a weekend wont it? l am pre booked on weekend 8th march and also towards end of July but seems May it is so far that's all free. Only one hicup on the far distant horizon, l think that may be April is Brian's Trophy weekend is around that time but no dates yet. Now as you have been totally confusing me and l am not going back to trolling 5 pages of dribble where are we looking to meet?

Well, if it is going to be oop North, I reckon it should be on Barry's estate. He needs to cut down his workforce a bit (hard times and all that) so we could take pot shots at the peasants with his Purdeys as a spot of light entertainment.

I reckon May. Probably early May. I think the venue will probably be Rays place subject to suitability or a rally field at Flamborough (same area)
Or the lake district (could be tricky) or maybe somewhere bonkers like Tan Hill.
Im thinking a Rally field would be best but then Rays place has a bar, fishing lakes etc. My only concern is that Ray has to live there and we might make a bit of a racket. Especially if guitars etc are involved as there was also talk of a music meet. Im just thinking of combining the all these things together really as well as Rays thoughful idea of doing it in memory of Norm.
I think Ill put the feelers out on Facts tonight with a link to this thread as well
What do ya reckon?

Just be careful about pub licising Fruitcakes on MHF. Some sensitive soul might read some of this shite and next thing we'll be raided and have our fuzz felt.
