Carsington, Uppertown Farm

Thanks to the marshals S & J with B & G, for a great weekend at Carsington, arrived in glorious sunshine and greeted with tea and cake, we got all sorted and gave help putting the shelters up and getting the urn on for later, but turned very chilly so all stayed indoors. Friday was free and easy with a visit by the local mobile chippy, very nice they were too. Saturday saw quite a few do the circular walk around the reservoir, with a few coming back a bit slower than they had started, all gathered in the community tent for the evening with a backwards raffle creating a few laughs, bingo was called by SP and with a few retiring, music was played while having a natter. Sunday came with drizzle, flag was held at 11.00, raffle was drawn, and winner of the competition announced, lucky me. Shelters down we all steadily packed up and made our ways home, brilliant weekend, thanks again especially to B & G helping out fot the first of many more hopefully. L & J

Moira Furnace, Easter

Easter Rally 2022. Arrived on Thursday in brilliant sunshine which stayed with us all weekend. Obviously ordered by the Marshalls. Thursday night free and easy meeting with friends and catching up. Friday in the party tent for a get together. Saturday American supper and raffle followed by bingo. The American supper would not have been out of place at an up-market function. It was amazing. Tea and coffee was on tap all weekend which was lovely, hot cross buns were had. Thanks to the people who kept the boiler topped up. Easter Sunday bacon baps were done for everyone and later saw a well organised egg hunt for the children and an adult and children’s Easter bonnet parade. Some amazing creations. Sunday night saw us in the party tent again just chilling and chatting. An excellent rally, friendly and welcoming as is to be expected on a 4Cs rally.
