Had a great day and enjoyed meeting everyone (what a warm friendly happy lot we all are). A big thank you to the organisers - you even arranged that the sun stay out for us all :-* Looking forward to the next one....

Title: Re: just back from rally Post by: Bob on March 14, 2009, 07:16:06 PM Thanks to everyone who organised the rally. Really enjoyable even though I only found
a shopping-bag's worth of rubbish, two coins (worn Edward halfpenny and a small, heavy coin) that could possibly be Roman but is so worn and corroded it's impossible to tell (probably a washer off a Massey Ferguson) The map and the sign posts were spot on and the people I met there were great. Best, Bob Title: Re: just back from rally Post by: zorro on March 14, 2009, 09:00:13 PM casa-dos nice to finally be able to put a face to your name. everyone seems to be in agreement that it was a very well run rally.

I think our rallies stand out because of the friendliness of everyone who attends. Thanks to Neil for his help with the organisation and thanks to Tafflaff (Rob) for finding the land and negotiating with the farmer to get us permission to hold the rally there. Thanks also to the weather for being kind to us. ;D
