Sizzling Sausage Rally,
Crowfield

May 2007
 

The weekend of the 18^th to the 20^th May 2007 brought us this fine rally. With a swift change of marshals at the last minute Derrick and Lesley were well supported by Norma and David Godfrey and Joy Anderson. Friday bought us a nice day for all the vans to be tucked away on the lush grass of Crowfield Village Hall. Once all were gathered  tea and coffee was served in the awning of the Stammers family then it seemed to get cold and most sauntered away to the vans .Next day we awoke to wonderful blue skies. During the day folks did their own thing, some worked on caravans spending hard earned money to keep the van at a safe distance from the towing vehicle. Others went to Stowmarket Caravans to spend even more money on a fixed bed.
 

Saturday evening brought us all together in the hall to have a super meal of three courses including the sausages !

Our centre chairman Dave Totman and Tracy took flagpole and welcomed two new families on first rallies these were the Midwinter family and the Read family we hope that they will continue to rally with us.
 

The disco was then lit up with the youngest DJ to entertain us namely Jake ably assisted by Chris Stammers. The music had us all up dancing and we were given a cabaret of Fireman Sam by the multi talented superman suited David Midwinter. The disco carried on into the wee hours and all enjoyed strutting their stuff.

Sunday morning saw Derrick back playing with the timeless ever popular game of Crowfield bingo. Joy sold the tickets and assisted Derrick reading the numbered balls he blamed his bifocals but we think that it was the medicine taken for his cough the night before!  Caravaneers did not rush away as most were happy to enjoy the warm sunshine for as long as they could. This ended another enjoyable rally, thank you to all the marshals.
