Darley Moor Motor Cycle Race Club September 26th - 29th

 We arrived Thursday and received a warm welcome from MC and W who then showed us where to go. It was raining so lucky for us the ground was level so we were able to reverse in and get the van level both ways the first time. I then sat and had a catchup with W and S while PR went out in the car to fetch ours and other members water. Thursday night was cold and wet so we all relaxed in our own vans.

Friday the weather was a lot better and we were able to sit out with the other members and have a chat and a good catch up. The club's tea urn had broken so W made drinks and bacon sandwiches for some of the members using his outdoor kitchen. Friday night we all went into the party tent where we had a few games of cards ( Sticky thirteen ) that SP organised, which was very amusing.

Saturday some of the members went into Ashbourne for a few hours, we went to a nearby garden center and others went for a walk upto the race track to watch the cycle racing. Saturday night we all gathered in the party tent for a music quiz which was very entertaining and so much fun. Some of the members had funny team names and the team that won was called the tea towels. MC had bought a large tub of Quality street to share after the quiz.

Thanks to the marshalls we all had a great weekend at a good venue.  SR

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.
