Little Easton Manor

Image
Just back from a long early bank holiday weekend at Little Easton Manor in Great Dunmow.  Sometimes you forget just what a picturesque County we live in. There are some exceptional places in Essex such as Finchingfield in the middle and Audley End to the North of the county.  But sometimes there are little Gems that are just tucked away that you would never find unless you explored a little further.  Little Easton Manor is one such place, these buildings and grounds date back to before Roman times and it is a grade 2 listed building.  There are other fascinating buildings and a church to explore all within walking distance. We are very fortunate to have this as an event in our rally calendar, especially as our pitches overlook the wonderful manor lake and across to the Manor House itself.  Our Marshals this weekend where Linda and Bart assisted by Pam. They were extremely welcoming and worked hard to make sure we enjoyed ourselves. Saturday morning we were tre...

A Medieval New Year

Image
 Trinity Park, Ipswich, Suffolk. 29th December to 2nd January 2026. So where do you start to write a report on this event!   A whirlwind of entertainment and food over 4 days of new year celebrations from which many are still recovering two days later.  With over 130 caravans or motorhomes in attendance anticipation was high as people arrived.   With the efficiency of a well drilled military operation, all were quickly sited and shown where to plug in for electric.   This is a huge showground venue with plenty of room for everyone.   No sooner had you set up it was over to the large event and conference centre to find your table, meet others and enjoy a catch up over some provided light refreshments. It is impossible to put into words the memories from this event and to do it justice.   Here are a just few of the features we all enjoyed. Children's crafting, adult dance lessons, films, cabaret showtime on two nights, diner on t...

  A Wonka New Year 29th December—2nd January 2025 Trinity Park—Suffolk Show Ground Never attended this teams New Year event? If you have ever organised an event for a club you know just how much work goes into making it happen.   So imagine an average club weekend then quadruple, quintuple or sextuple it.   Somewhere within those figures you will arrive at the 120+ units and 240+ people that attended this event.    It adds a whole new meaning to putting the kettle/urn on for tea or coffee for the attendees! The organisation that goes into to planning such an event is huge.   The work required by the back room office team for just handling bookings, dietary requirements and catering supplies must be immense.   This is not to mention the list of jobs ‘to do’ ranging from liaising with the venue to booking entertainment.   I am not sure a summary of the effort required would ever do justice to their input and work.   It is best just than...

A Dirty Weekend in Weely

Image
 Event 27 : 4th-6th July 2025 For those that were wondering......  A “Dirty Weekend in Weely” was all about the film Dirty Dancing. Those that thought otherwise, you were so wrong!! In a changed venue to that originally advertised, Grange Farm at Thorpe-Le-Soken is a new site for us.  Set well away from any roads with just a train line in the distance, this lovely country side location is comprising of many acres nestled amongst crop growing farm land.  It hosts three separate ‘camping’ areas, these are “Oak”, Cherry Trees” and Brambles.  All were very well maintained with new and very clean toilet and shower blocks.  All pitches as far as I could see had EHU. Although a commercial site, it still has that small feeling and of being secluded in the wonderful Essex countryside. There are some nice little touches of model birds dotted around all three sites.   Its things like this that show the owners care and make the site what it is, charming is a w...

800 Rallies!

Image
A fantastic achievement to to reach : 800 rallies  Well done Les & Jackie. Midway through the 1980's this couple joined the North Essex Centre as it seemed a good way to meet people. While rallying consistently their enjoyment for the club grew as the years rolled past.   So much so that they quickly became a regular on most events.   Not only did their attendances rise quickly, they also run countless rallies bringing fun and memories to others.   Their devotion to the club has been obvious to those that know Les and Jackie. So it was no surprize that they occupied important rolls on the committee for numerous years.   These include Chairman, Treasurer and Rally secretary. A fantastic achievement to to reach : 800 rallies  Well done Les & Jackie
