Riverside Farm, Rudgwick, 17-19 May
Well done Carol and Dave for finding this absolutely lovely new venue. The weather was kind to us and the area is fantastic for walking.
We had a lovely relaxing time with a meet up on Friday evening. Saturday saw the first West Sussex communal cook out with a mix of proper charcoal and gas fired barbecues plus some people using cadacs.
Mac lured us all into the club house with the promise of a 'light hearted' quiz! Blimey I hate to think what a hard quiz would be like. Anyway we all had a head scratch and laugh and got appalling scores.
If we rally here again I recommend the site very highly. Remember though to approach from the Rudgwick village direction as the turn in whilst doable isn't brilliant from the other way.
Thanks Mac and Marilyn for taking this one on at fairly short notice

Hole Park, Rolvenden, 2-6 May
What a difference a year makes! Last year we all had to be towed onto and off the rally field and endured a weekend up to our knees in mud. This year it was beautiful, for most of the weekend, with a few showers on Saturday. Several people visited Hole Park to see the Bluebells and beautifully landscaped gardens. We were advised that the Bluebells were not at their best yet but they looked pretty spectacular to me, as did the Azaleas and Rhododendrons.
Rod got his horses out on Saturday afternoon and it was lovely to see some of the children joining in the racing event. The trophy was won by Jackie Hayward who thrashed everyone (and not by a short distance) and was over the moon to win something! On Saturday evening we took part in Kevin and Nicola's Around Britain quiz. I don't know who found these questions but suffice to say there was a lot of head scratching going on. It was actually quite shocking to realise how little we know about our own country. Sunday saw a lot of throwing games on the field, welly wanging, log throwing, golf balls aimed at a target, frisbees and hagars chess. There was a lot of support for the games and the winners won some horse themed prizes which were awarded at flag. On Sunday evening, we all met in the party tent for Brian's funny prize bingo, played with playing cards. It seemed odd but the same people kept winning over and over again (not mentioning any names) but we were assured it was just the way the cards came out and there was no fixing.
Most of us have come home looking like we've been on holiday and that is exactly what it felt like.
Huge thanks to Rod and Mu and Kevin and Nicola who put a lot of effort into organising events to keep us occupied. We all thoroughly enjoyed it.

Loveders, 26-28 Apr
We rolled up at four o'clock on Friday having had a busy day getting Sandy's car serviced. We were met by a smiley Bruce, Pat and Pete who allocated our pitch. Friday was my birthday and about six o'clock I was presented with a lovely cake in the shape of a poodle head made by Pat. The cake was blooming delicious.  We went out for dinner with Dave, Carol, Rudy and Val and met Lynsey, Jay, Phil and Angela too.
Saturday saw a sunny day with a visit to Chichester Caravans plus a lovely walk, led by Bruce in the afternoon. That evening we got together in the club house where Bruce did us all a very easy quiz (not) and the team we were in came second.
Flag was held in the sun and the best bit by far was that Sandy won the fruit cake made by Pat!
Lovely sunny relaxing weekend and a cake too! I love rallying!
Well done Bruce and Pat assisted by Pete and Freda Dales.
See you all soon

We pride ourselves on being a friendly, welcoming centre and enjoy seeing so many friends on the rally field. If you have not been to a West Sussex rally recently, why not come and join us and see for yourselves how much fun we have.

A big thankyou to all those members that have volunteered to run rallies in 2013. Without you, there would be no rallies. If you have not run a rally before but would like to do so in the future, why not team up with somebody this year to see what is involved or speak to a committee member who will be able to advise you.

We are always looking for new venues so if you know of a place that we might be able to visit, please inform a member of the committee and they will follow it up.

Finally, please support your rally officers who put a lot of effort into organising events for your enjoyment. Rally weekends are a great way of getting to know people, making long lasting friendships and also offer terrific value for money entertainment.

Hope to meet up with you all soon.

Best wishes

Carol Wightman
