Moira Furnace Museum & co, June 27th to 30th 2024

A lovely rally run by SR & PR and SP & JP. A great little site with a children's park nearby and some fabulous walks. One along the canal which takes you to a pub ( Halfway House ) at Donisthorpe which has a great beer garden with children's play area. The weather was cloudy with some sunshine apart from some heavy rain during Saturday night. Thursday was a chill out afternoon/evening with members sitting outside together catching up and then later retiring to the clubs party tent, for more catchup time and laughs. Friday we took a walk along the canal to the pub for a pint and a cheese and onion cob. We had a blackout and won happy days lol. Then we all met up in the party tent to socialize together and enjoy a drink and some snacks brought in by a member. Saturday in the morning we went for a walk to the local co-op and post office/off license. It was a fantastic afternoon playing games, Shuffleboard, cornhole, hook ring toss game, quoits and horseshoe throw. The men competed against each other, the women against each other and the children against each other. There were lots of laughs and cheering each other on.  Later that evening we went to the party tent to announce the winners. The winner of the mens was GW the women LB, they both won a free Admin pass and the winner of the children's was RD who won a bag of sweets. SN&RN

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. Thanks to the Marshalls for all their hard work and everyone who helped. Personal thanks to SR for the drink on Thursday. Really enjoyed the ra

What a scorcher of a weekend at Market Bosworth. Friday was a free and easy day with a Chip shop run in the evening. Thank you, S & J, for doing this as it saved me having to get the Cadac going,. Saturday was very warm so plans were amended. Some of us did the walk in to Market Bosworth and some did the short drive in while others were left dog sitting.There are only a handful of shops in Market Bosworth but some very nice purchases were made. A couple of pints in Ye Olde Red Lion Hotel went down well before returning to our caravans.The evening started with an American supper followed by an entertaining Backward Raffle.There was also a raffle followed by Bingo.The Quiz this rally was really good as we actually knew a lot of the answers. Sunday was a chilled morning in the warm weather. Thanks to the Marshall’s for an enjoyable and entertaining weekend. Your hard work is very much appreciated.  H & P
