Clicky Club rallies

Don't rally like we used to. It's same old same old every week.

Then you have those that are on a power trip and "mess" with folks' leisure to further their own imagined standing within the centre.

Fortunately there are other alternatives if you choose to look farther than the end of a tunnel.

Of course you could organise one with something new?

We rally regularly and whilst I can recognise most points made have not met any 'nasty' people.

As said it is often a mix of reasons for contact, or the lack of, between ralliers but for us rallies are a way to get a quality site for a reasonable price and not a way of socialising but, if that happens, then it's a bonus but if the aim of the rally was to meet new people you may feel dissatisfied.

Also we almost always have children with us when we go away and there is only one rally where we go alone to meet friends we met on a New Year rally but even then the Grandchildren come at the weekend. 

We went on a Christmas party rally back in 2003 with our centre as we thought the children would enjoy it and whilst there booked for the New Year rally. We have attended every year since and there are people that we know on a nod and hello basis and others that we will spend our evenings with.

I had to post my opinion on Rallies , me and hubby have just done our first one this last weekend. We did not know what to expect,we had a problem with how to get our water for our Motorhome but two of the Rally people very kindly brought two aquaroll of water to fill us up. We attended the opening flag which was nice and we was mentioned as it was our first rally. We all had  a game of Rounders with the kids included egg batting contest bingo a quiz cakes and tea coffee and biscuits it was a fun weekend the people were lovely and we intend to do more rallies. This was the North Lancashire Rally. You have to make conversation don't sit there it takes two to talk so if you don't like to mix  maybe rallies are not for you ..We also received our  first Rally  Plaque which is in the Window of our Motorhome.

I used to go int early 90's & they have always been clicky:

I thought this was the whole reason behind rallies

These days we go to rallies because they are somewhere we want to go rather then someone we want to go with, though sometimes the two coincide - which is a bonus 

For instance, our last rally ( a couple of weekends ago) was run by a local (ish) centre to coincide with a special dinner on the saturday evening and unlimited travel all weekend on the Bluebell railway, we were parked behind the station and woken each morning by a gentle chuff, chuff...woo woo!    Did I mention we love steam railways 

Our idea of absolute heaven AND lots of old friends from several different centres too, what more could you want ?

Something  Steam  powered  that  don't  need  rails  would  help, Alison  <-------------------->
