Jim,

Not 100% sure but I think it could be at Old Warden, near Biggleswade, Bedfordshire.

Cheers,

Roger

Roger,
I thought with the high numbers attending I might be further north.
Will just have to wait and see. If its any further South there is no way I will be driving over 700 miles in two 2 days in the Amazon.
Fingers crossed.
Thanks
Jim

I also heard a whisper that it may be Old Warden again. Not a bad location but understandably a long way to travel from over the border. However, I would be prepared to go further north for a few days for a meeting in addition to the National and Northern rallies.

If it was a suitable location in somewhere attractive and with good camping facilities then I'm sure there could be a good response. I recall a Transport Rally at Dunbar some years ago, coupled with a visit to a bus museum somewhere not far from Edinburgh. Then there is the Camping & Caravanning Club site at Moffat just off the M74, not too far for Sassenachs to venture into Scotland and non C & C members are welcome. Food for thought ?

Regards, Richard VOC 3801.
