Rally Report

We were very pleased to finally be having a rally after the long lay off, it was also the first New Year's Rally for some time.  We had four turnouts participating, the weather was kind to us, no rain and warm for the time of year.

As a variation from previous rallies from the same venue a large part of the route was off road, necessitating a dash the long way round by the escort cars to get ahead of the turnouts before they emerged back on to the road.

The photo above shows them reappearing, they had been able to see the giraffes in the Safari Park whilst making their way along the tracks, just as well it wasn't the lions !!  Makes my previous wildlife sightings of such things as herons seem decidedly tame !

The rally passed off all too quickly before we were back at Annie's for a mug of hot soup and some cake to revive the intrepid folk who had turned out on a winter's day.

Many thanks to Annie for letting us use her field, for finding a very good route and for the refreshments after.
