This year we went to our first national  rally as a family and we all loved it so in November  we went  no line to book next year's  rally only to find out its sold out  .it must be a lot smaller  site than 2016

That and the need to provide everyone with an ehu (are you reading this Merve?frown).  

I am aware of one fire related incident on a rally which had devastating consequences are you saying that there have been others where tight spacing has caused further consequences?

Believe me, one incident like that was one too many. 

We do not need anything like that in any gathering

EVER AGAIN !surprised

I agree, but the question is would different spacing made a difference to the outcome?  I assume that we are talking about the same incident.  But Unfortunetely it is impractical to eliminate all risks. If you want to stop plane crashes it's simple just ban aeroplanes.  Risks and hazards should be reduced as much as possible but the only way to take all risks from a rally is to ban rallies. Which would cheer up a number on here.

Apparently (I don't know the exact numbers but...) there are actually MORE spaces this year than last year and they still may not be set in stone so... hang on in there folks if your name is on the waiting list...
