The 7^th – 9^th September 2007 saw some 22 caravans attend the peace and tranquillity that Clare Priory holds. The sun shone, most of the time it seemed that summer had arrived in September. It was one of those rallies that did not require pegging out due to the nature of the grounds . The flagpole was not used because of the trees so the Suffolk Centre banner was used to great effect. A walk through the country park to view the once used railway station now where the lines were is all put to grass. The Station building is still standing and is still in use. A climb up a narrow path took us to the remains of the castle a good view over the surrounding countryside could be gained from here. The town of Clare is full of old buildings all with history, as is the Priory what an interesting sundial on its wall!

The rally was a do as you please one walking talking and relaxing. Derek Pannell took Flagpole with Sheena. Ken & Janet Beswick the marshals at this rally were presented with a plaque. A 400^th rally plaque was presented to Brian and Brenda Taylor what an achievement I’ve only got about 250 to do . We were all “ Chilled  out “ after this rally . Thanks to the marshals for a peaceful rally.

Denis Val and family.
