Hello everyone
Haven’t we had a fabulous summer. We have had some lovely rallies and I hope those of you who attended enjoyed them.
Our rally at Cromford saw us welcome Robin Good to entertain us, and what a fabulous nights entertainment it was, a man of many talents.
Bakewell as usual was well attended, and we were joined by members of the newly formed ‘Motorcycle Group’, we also had the added attraction of the Bakewell carnival.
Rutland Water, Chatsworth and Carsington water all held their own delights.
Our last summer rally was by the Sea at Skegness. What a weekend of changeable weather, the cold winds encouraging members to stay in their vans in the evening, although we did manage to have the obligatory game of Bingo and a Quiz. Other activities were put on hold. Sue & John encouraged the children to make tents out of sheets and poles. Thank you both. Sunday was a complete washout, so the afternoon tea party/ faith supper was held on Monday, what a success it was, after eating our fill we were entertained by members telling jokes etc which kept the happy atmosphere going.

Update : Christmas Party Rally now starts on Thursday 6th December, there will be a bus to the Lincoln Christmas Market on Friday 7th booking forms for coach are on the web site, or contact anneeastmidlands@gmail.com Cost £6.50 each.
