A Meare Weekend in Thorpeness

Once again an excellent rally at Thorpeness Ogilvie Pavilion and Sports Ground.

Thanks must go to Mark and Rachel Gowers for putting marshals together for this rally following Diane Preston being unable to run it due to the sad loss of John earlier this year. The weather threw much of a normal English Bank Holiday at us, wind, rain, showers and sunshine. A short stroll into the main village area saw most people wandering around to do the quiz which we understood was compiled by Graham Noye – so a big thank you to him.

The rally exceeded the numbers expected, which was lovely to see, with a total of 47 vans on site, which included a first rallier and a few visitors.

Tea and coffee were laid on together with competitions for young and old. It was announced that new marshals would be needed for 2019 and by the end of the rally that was all sorted and the rally will return again in next years programme.

A lovely weekend for both young and old at a lovely venue
