Creatures 2nd Any Spare Change Rally

[creature]

ok ok I know I said I wasnt gonna do another one and then people reminded me of the promise PaulTheStall got out of me on the Sat nite at this years bash.... and the requests in person, email and phone calls so there will be another one next year........

THE DATE WILL BE 3rd weekend in MAY 16th - 18th

Venue has been confirmed at

The Plough - Address: Ramsey Road, Farcet Fen, Peterborough, Cambridgeshire, PE7 3DR [01733 844307]

I will update this post on this thread only to keep the thread tidy. If people could cross post on other forums,websites would be very grateful.

The format will be slightly different next year in that 80% of profit will goto NABD (to be handed to Rick Hulse at 2009 rally). and 20% will stay in bank account to help fund the following years rally...

I am in need of sponsorship for next years fund raiser, so if your a company or work for a company Please ask !!! all donations will be gratefully received and put to good use

The site is to be confirmed but hopefully will be a lot closer to Peterborough and a lot easier to find.

There may be some limitations on the amount of bands next year if we have to use a marquee. But the pub Owner has planning permission going thru for a purpose built music barn complete with stage n bar for around 500 people - (should be big enough for us)

Rick Hulse will again be the Guest of Honor and to receive the cheques on behalf of N.A.B.D.

[texon]

don't you be scarring customers   

[BikerGran]

Can't make this one again cos this year I'm looking after my grandchildren but I'm told by those who went last year that it was one of the best rallies they'd ever been to!

Creature does almost all the organising himself, in addition to the fundraising he does for the NABD at all the rallies where he and Polly are DJing, and he deserves all the support you can give him!

[creature]

fol all you people who always get lost close to the site ya going to - have some great signs (Many thanx to Kylie)

[madron]

shouldnt miss them signs like last year lol

[creature]

ok as I seem to offended some people im not gonna use these signs as directions (altho they will be used on teh site) This will mean there will be no direction signs this year as I havnt the time to get new ones done.

[madron]

Just had an email from Colin the pub owner.

He wants me to thank everyone who attended the rally, and respected his site and his staff. He has appologised for running out of some beers on saturday nite (this was his first largish rally) and promises it will not happen again next year (sounds like a challange to me). He has also said that he couldnt believe the tidyness of the site all weekend and on Sunady morning was amazed at how little rubbish was on the site.

He also wants to thank eveybody for leaving there cans at there tents and drinking his beer. (Colin has no problem with people bring some of ther own alchohol on site for consumption at there tents. (I second this as my helpers were explaining to people arriving about the above not one person complained. and many were said they understand). But as he sponsored teh Marquee, Stage, Floor & Dancefloor - he was very worried about covering his costs. He has already invited the 3rd AnySpare Change Rally back for next year, with him again Sponsoring the Marquee, Stage, Floor & Dancefloor. (more about this in June after we have our meeting).

Also Colin has said that many of his regulars were in the pub saturday and sunday saying what a great bunch of people we were and cannot understand why are all our parties are being cancelled as they could see all we wanted to do was have some harmless fun. I must admit to watching people struggle to eat there meals they brought in the pub. A few said it was pricey, but those who eat the meals all said it was fantastic value for money.

Right just woke up and now going back to bed. - many thanx to everyone for a great weekend. and I hope everyone got home ok. Ill see ya all there again next year. (or even in  afield somewhere real soon).

[tazet]

That's great that everything went so well for you. Just the sort of good press the biking scene needs. Get him to contact a newspaper or something to show the world that it's not as bad as what the police are making it out to be. Might even help revive some of the cancelled shows.

[creature]

the local press were there - i did notify the loacal tv station but no response (will try harder next year)

Many thanx to all who have emailed Colin at the Plough - he is totally overwelmed by teh emails he is receiving.

He has also phoned me to say that the rally now has a pernament home for as long as we want it

please leave your comment here on my rally guestbook http://users2.smartgb.com/g/g.php?a=s&i=g25-04681-a2 your posts are very much appriciated

[Manky Monkey]

Congratulations mate. Glad it was the success it deserved to be.
