You’ve heard of the Three Degrees, The Three
Tenors, Three Dog Night, Three of a Kind,
Three sheets to the Wind, Three wheels on my
Wagon and many many more ,well here we have
The Three Tremors ,otherwise known as Dave
with my Back, Trevor with my leg and John,
what with my hip. Well what with their
individual aches and pains . They all
welcomed us to The Christmas Spectacular
Rally at Banham Zoo with a smile on their
faces. The weather forecast was rather
gloomy but true to the style of these
Marshals it remained bright but cool ( well
what can you expect it is December )
Tracy was giving instruction in the use of
4 wheel drive. Some of us have it but don’t
use it .Bob didn’t feel quite so bad when I
told him that I couldn’t remember how to
work it either. Soon we were all sited and
having lots of help the van was level ,
Michael got the water and also put the
electric hook up lead through the pipe in
the hedge and plugged it in. Thank you.
Michael. I put the beds up and after a chat
went in and saw the time, well having told
the children that it was very late for them
they were soon in bed and the lights put out
. It was not until next morning that I
realised that I had forgot to put the clock
in the caravan back an hour – oops!
Saturday came with a visit to
the Zoo. Santa Claus was first on the list
of things to do, next a look at the animals
.
At 2pm we went and watched
our own performance of Cinderella , A
wonderful Christmas show for all the family,
it seems that some members could do magic
tricks and watch the show with their eyes
closed , not to embarrass them I won’t
mention their names here, speak to me later
and I will reveal all. As night fell we
were able to look around the Zoo to see all
the Christmas lights a very magical sight it
was and all the time Christmas carols were
being played .
7.30pm came with flagpole in
the function room and a disco followed with
lots of dancing singing and merry making.
At a late hour the music stopped and off to
bed we went . Next morning saw another trip
around the Zoo before packing away saying
our farewells and making the short drive
home to store the van away until next time.
A big thank you to all the
marshals Dave ,Tracy, Trevor, Sue, John and
Christine for a super rally hope we can do
it again next year
