Re: Ecky Thump Rally
A Big Thankyou to all who attended.
I know that some of you travelled some distance to get there, despite the weather.
Some 8 of us were at the site for the Thursday evening and had access to the Hub but no on site bar or catering. We had to make our own arrangements (read send Big John to Whitby for fish'n chips!), before going to the pub.
Friday morning saw the local ladies having a coffee / tea and cake / Tombola morning in the hall, which we gladly attended and gave cash to.
When they were clearing up it was suggested that we keep the leftover cakes and negotiated £30 for the lot
They raised some £715 for their charity.
Friday afternoon was a bit of a washout but stalwarts still arrived if a little moist! But we had the hall and fantastic toilets and showers, the bar inside was opened early for us at about 4 .00pm. The rain continued until about 7.00pm, by which time the catering van run by the lovely Vicky arrived and a very tasty Steak pie, peas, chips and gravy (£7.50) consumed by many to great reviews. I lit the fire pit about the same time as the rain had stopped and joined in the drinking until stupid o clock!
Saturday morning saw the sunshine out and a full English breakfast from the van, Bacon, sausage, egg, black pudding, mushrooms, tomatoes, beans, toast and a mug of tea for £5. People did their own thing during the day, whether biking, walking or taking the train into Whitby.
The evening saw a meal of curry / chips/ popodoms and relishes, and the bar open again.....and another late evening.
By the time I got up on the Sunday morning quite a few had already set off homeward. I had a good clean around and can say the site was spotless by the time I was last to leave.
Our expenses were :- £80 for cleaning of the Hub facilities. £60 for the wood. £30 donation for the cakes.
I collected £10 per tent per night for camping.
I was able to Donate £265 to the Hub for letting us use the Building and £265 to Air Ambulance
I had the Fire pit made but have left that for the Hub to use, along with the leftover un burnt firewood.
Vicky did a great job of catering for us, even doing some Vegan food, She has got all of the builders buckets that we used for rubbish.
I hope that during the weekend I managed to speak to everyone who attended and got the impression the it was a great place to have a meet, therefore i have booked the same place and Vicky for catering for next year, 28th Sept to 1st Oct, tell your mates and put it in your diary.
Many Thanks Steve (AKA Mario)

Re: Ecky Thump Rally
I've been feeling a bit shitty for the last couple of days so tested myself this morning which came out positive. Can only assume I picked it up at the rally. Just be aware folks.
