Event Details Discussion
Hi David
Can I please be added to the list for Thorpe (only)
I am still getting LPG aggro from the fridge so can I have EHU as well
Thx
John
 
Can I go on list for Thorpe le Soken please
Thanks Les
 
For me £25 a night per unit has to be an absolute maximum given it's pitch with limited facilities. Cost is only softened by the inclusive museum tour. After all I've been paying less than £10 for grass pitch on C&CC sites this summer (no ehu but has good toilet / shower block), making for one person some of the THS costly.

I do wonder if the museum's staffing need apparently 24 hours on site is part of the issue? They might have some concerns but perhaps out of hours when we shouldn't have access to anything other than our pitch area, all they need is someone on call, which they probably maintain already when shut in case of emergency.

i dont disagree Rob, i had originally hoped i could soften the blow for single travellers by reducing their nightly 'rate', but that just wont work now due to the limited numbers and the costs of the venue. Its definitely worth attending in my opinion especially as it will be a one off rally.
i think one of the 'problems' is that they have to apportion 20% of any monies we pay to bloody VAT, even though the museum is a charity .... and they also want to make a small profit, which is perfectly understandable

Could you add me to your list for this rally please -including Stow Maries and the meal if any spaces left
Many thanks,

Hello David - Our revised plans at the moment more than likely mean we will still be in Europe when your rally is on! Please can you remove us from the interested list!

Thanks!

MisterB. Deposit for £30-00 paid Dave, and referenced JockandRita Socken25. :)

That should help offset the Disneyland expenditure for you. :LOL:

Cheers,

Jock. ;)

Deposit time please folks for Thorpe le Soken. Can you please pay £30 deposit before 30th November, thanks please include your forum name as a reference.

Deposit is non returnable unless the event is cancelled, but someone can take over your booking and refund you the deposit, as of yet there is no reserve list, though the rally is now full.

I haven't had confirmation of the total price yet so until I do and post it on the forum, ALL deposits will be refunded!!!

When we do get the final cost, if anyone decides to pay in full, then a full refund LESS the deposit will be made.

For those who still have the details of payment from last year please use those account details, for everyone who doesn't have those details, can you please pm me and I will send them. I'm usually on here a couple of times a day, so will usually get back to you within a day or so.

If anyone is interested in also having another curry night on the Wednesday please let me know via a PM. Not sure of cost at this time, but an indication of numbers always helps me when negotiating a good deal upfront lol!!

I don't know whether anyone left private tips for the staff last year but does it make sense to include one from 'MHF'?

Senior moment.
If yo wonder where the money came from it me 😂😂😂😂
 
MisterB David, I haven't sent any money yet for Stow Maries because I haven't received a pm and don't appear on the list.
Is this an oversight or is the payment details for just Stow Maries coming later? 🤔

The payment for Stow has yet to be sorted, mainly because it will need to be paid upfront in full. So until we hit the numbers required to keep it at £25 per night, then I'm holding back on collecting any payments, thanks

Just checked and you are Def on the list for Stow?
 
Well I have totally messed up then. I have only booked for Stow, but had a pm so paid £30. Presume it will all come out in the wash.

Happy to refund you if it makes it easier for you ? I sent details because you asked for them, I didn't check whether you were on Thorpe or Stow !

Me not reading properly! Whatever makes your accounting easier. Quite happy for you to keep hold of it if that is easier. Sorry, sorry, sorry!
