Trevor & Susan Smith.
Many thanks to
Trevor Smith, Rosanna Waterson and Steve
Garrard for the following pictures:
With a little
bit of my arm pushed up my back.... I
have agreed to publish the following photo.
This is a "get your own back" for the time
when Steve's truck needed a tow on the rally
field. This time it was my turn.
I had an electrical fault on my running gear
and this, mixed with me fiddling about and
leaving the ignition on for 3 hours, had
drained my battery. Steve willingly
came to the rescue as you can see.
I think our 2 vehicles have a bit of a love
affair going on and they have minds of their
own !!

Fire Safety
Please ensure you have read the Fire Safety
Procedure on page 635 of your Sites Directory & Handbook.
Rally Marshals may not have fire extinguishers available on the
rally field in future.
From October 2009 it will be a Suffolk Centre
recommendation that all caravans attending a rally should have a "fire bucket" filled with water adjacent to their "A" frame.
It is recommend that you have a fire extinguisher and fire
blanket in your caravan in case of emergency and regularly check
the batteries in your smoke alarm.
