Rally Swaffham Bash 2025

Yes please John, if you have space left, plus 2 fish and chips.
 
Sorry John , but can't make it this year
Fingers crossed for next
Sorry I have to.pull out
 
Why not, he and Larby can take it in turn to goad you?
Their, perhaps, getting too old to take on a full grown woman alone? 🤣
Think before action.
Get the fudge first, THEN Goad Dawn B

I was going to say that Peter Larby has completely blown his strategy out of the water Dawn B. Now you know the solution. Keep him away from the fudge until the Monday! :rofl:
 
For those of you that have not met Dawn B this is her.

Sorry John, we are now unable to make it to the 'bash' this year....too many other commitments to try and juggle that weekend.
Please take us off the list....
Gary & Ang

You have to do 5 rounds with Larby first, then be really, really nice by bribing the marshals, then risk the dogs by approaching the Dawn B van and crawl. Then she might just let you look at it as she shares it with everyone else. :wink:

Alternatively, a £100 donation to John Jaws for the air ambulance might persuade Dawn to look kindly on you. Some years fudge has been sold to the highest bidder in the auction.

Having never experienced Swaffham. What's the story re fundraising, do we bring raffle prizes, or I hear tell of an auction?
 
Yep it's an auction (cash so have plenty). Donate your treasured item (can be motorhome related or not). Gather in the bar and join the masses trying to bid for all the  junk special items. All proceeds go to the charity - air ambulance
 
John Jaws fundraises for the Air Ambulance and has done so for well over a decade. The main fundraiser is an auction which has everything from plastic spanners, through everything you could possibly want for a van, car, motorbike or your home, drink, food etc. etc so bring anything you think will sell, and loads of dosh yourself. It's a lot of fun. Oh and a 'candle' as well.

The Rugby Club bar is in the evenings and sell at the normal club prices and you are asked to support it if possible as they do John a good deal on the venue.

John will send out full details nearer the time but points to note are:
1. There is only one fresh water tap, so you are advised to arrive with at least some water.
2. You have to take away all your own rubbish. There is no rubbish or recycling on the site.
3. Toilets are generally open in the club throughout the day and evening as John is given the keys.
4. It's a really friendly rally but it depends on everyone making a bit of effort to speak to others and to make them feel welcome.
5. If you can play and/or sing, bring your instrument and make yourself known. There is usually a good mix of musicians who entertain on the Monday evening, but it depends who turns up.
6. On arrival let the marshals know if you have any mobility issues or special requests. Normally people are parked row by row on arrival and that really makes things easy. If you want to park together, please arrange to arrive together, (If that is not possible, first one in speak to the marshalls. You will then have to keep the other space as it's too difficult for them to know what spaces are reserved. There are a few groupings such as the solo ladies group but again, please ask on arrival. Some spaces are reserved for the band, John's family etc. Sorry but the thought of humping speakers and other heavy gear from one side of the pitch to the other means they have to be near the club.

You will have fun.
 
Dawn likes to pretend she's scary. It's not true as she is very pleasant. :LOL:
Stop creeping Robin. Dawn would not like her nasty reputation to be tarnished with praise. The fudge is to garner favours in parking and allow her to play Pétanque.
How to get on my side? My wife and I are signing in Marshalls. Unwanted Easter eggs buys the equivalent of 5 rounds.
Being polite and giving Easter eggs to the parking Marshalls will ensure they don’t park you next to Dawn.
Playing Pétanque and letting me win helps, as does letting Dawn win to obtain Fudge
