Do you enjoy Rallies?

[Trotter]

Free time is my biggest issue. Other wise I'd probably just drift from one to the next. Besides, you lot are some of the few who'd put up with me.

I don't watch a lot of tennis, but some of the men's singles rallies are amazing... With the women's singles, all that grunting, gasping and wobbly flesh, tends to spoil my concentration.

And some of my favourite meets include chicken and beef. Not so keen on lamb.

 

[Minisorella]

I suppose I am in a way, but I deffo prefer to choose what company I keep, hence no sites.

In my experience, campsites are the last place to worry about the company... no-one ever talks to each other anyway!
Meets are much more friendly

we attend a few, some larger than others, for the last few years we have attended with a group called "Wild Festivals and Wild Gatherings" the trouble is they have now got too big (and expensive) but we also attend a the "Classic Hymer" meets at a small country pub in Hook Hampshire, camping is free, they like you to but a drink or two or have a meal (which are very good)

We used to have meets there quite often a fab pub and camping field.

It was our 'home from home' for years wasn't it? We must all go again soon

I love the meets... all of them! Large or small, pub, town or remote location, each meet has its own charm and, of course, the best part is meeting up with everyone. Smaller meets are best for quality time with a smaller group of people but the big meets give us all the opportunity to put names to faces and start building new friendships. All of this makes the forum more fun too, interacting with people you've actually met. I love the pub meets in the winter... usually with hardstanding and a roaring fire inside. I'm with Sue, cannot thank Phil and the event team enough for all the hard work they do on our behalf

My thanks too

 

[Peter51]

I want to thank everyone of the organisers for doing such a wonderful job!

 

[Barge1914]

Not been to many cos we’re never in the right place at the right time, but at the few we’ve been to we’ve enjoyed meeting folks who’re as mad as us!....er, that’s you lot! Looking forward to seeing you again...somewhere.

 

[Kyran]

we enjoy rallies and meets any size but they need to be weekend ones we still have to work during the week

 

[Ellendale]

We have loved the ones we have been to - all on the same site at Hereford! Life does tend to get in the way of regular attendance during the year but when you need two new knees and a new shoulder you've got to take the dates they give you!
We fully appreciate the work and effort the organisers put in on our behalf and would like to thank them profusely!

 

[oppy]

We too have always enjoyed the meets, some more than others, but we seem to have acquired a few health problems recently so have not done much lately, we even had to leave the Anglesey one early. ( and the vans a bit poorly too) But I raise a glass to those who work so very hard at creating these gatherings and making them such a success.

I love all the Meets, large or small, although secretly I enjoy smaller, more intimate, Meets, simply because of the conversations and also the informality.
My only dislike is when you have to use the Pub. Far better, in my mind, to pay a token pitch price, and then you can choose whether to use the Pub or not.

 

[Trotter]

Most meets are great. I must remember to thank the organisers.

One day, when I've time.

 

[jeffmossy]

As most of you know we work full time so organising a rally can sometimes take up a lot of free time that we have , some rallies we have organised have taken 2 or 3 of our weekends up sorting things out . Hats off to Gordon and Roger who also work also Phil and the rest of the team for their great efforts . Threads like this and thank you threads from the rallies do make the difference and that is why we carry on organising the rallies as well as giving us all opportunities to meet awesome members of this community . A big well done and thank you to all the organisers and the members who attend the rallies . Jeff & Lorraine

With you on that one, we are not great pub goers

 

[Deg3y]

I am away a lot of the time, going to music festivals, mainly blue grass & country, but have been to others as well. often away a couple of months at a time. I also meet up at social gatherings meeting up with friends, I intend to downsize my MH after the new year as I will be slowing down my travels & only going to smaller events & gatherings. Love meeting up with people & making new friends.

 

[Trompete]

Do you attend rallies, meets, gatherings?
If you do, is your preference for large or small and if not, what puts you off attending?

Rarely...prefer doing our own thing.

Yeah, I'm the same Sue.
