Re: 750mc beaulieu stay or move

Hi Timothy,

Any changes or additions, will have to be ok'd first by the 750. Of course.

But if they do take on change, and ask for these things to be done. Yes I welcome help.

I think the tent needs livening up, and yes as you say something outside the tent on saterday evening could help.

Again these decisions are the 750s

I used to do a stall at Enfield padgent, and the years I done it. Many people talked about the quality of the stalls dropping each year. However the evening beer tent and entertainment pulled a huge crowd.

One thing that drew everyone to the beer tent wasn't necassarily the beer. They parked two steam engines outside, running. Brilliant.

Sadly as usual the few spoiled it for the many. With fits breaking out.

I've attended this event since they stopped the entertainment, and I'm sorry to say, unless you go to bed at 6pm, there is nothing.

Tony.

Re: 750mc beaulieu stay or move

I enjoy beaulieu and have been doing it every year for the last 17 since I restored my 1925 chummy,usely stay from Friday till sunday afternoon,sat always have a drive out around the new forest,used to camp in a tent but now have a motor home which is a lot easier,there have been some good years and some not so are group are getting smaller and I notice lots missing who used to go.The drive up this year took over 5 hours with lots of slow moveing traffic on the a361 a303 and through Salisbury early July being peak holiday time.Ive always wondered why the Austin rally is at Beaulieu as shurely the home of Austin is Birmingham and longbridge still has Cofton Park,closer to the center of the country plenty of rooms/pubs shops etc and where they were all made.
worth thinking about?The rally there in 2005 was good and why not have the rest of the Austins there as well
