Manning Point Rally Feb. 2013

Where do I start, what a week. we had 11 vans ( 11th being new members Edith and Trevor) with some staying only a few days and some for the week. Unfortunately John (President) had a tumble on Friday and ended up in Taree Hospital with a broken Collarbone. He spent the rest of the night there waiting for xrays and was very sore and sorry and had to take it easy for the rest of the week.
Saturday night we had our combined BBQ which was great and the wide variety of salads and sweets that you all contributed was all very good and we never seem to double up on anything. We also had a couple of visitors in the Jollys and Moores who came down for the dinner with Bob still in a sling from his shoulder operation. The weather was very good most of the week where we were hearing of rain and storms at home but we only had a few showers.The mossies were a bit of a nuisance but the park owner did his best to get rid of them with his smoke trolley with a few bangs to frighten some of the dogs and others telling him  where to go !! But nothing deterred our fishermen. The boys caught several fish off the beaches but some who fished the river found it tough.
All up a good Rally.  See you all at the next one at South West Rocks in April.
