To book a IHOC camping area at Warner's shows, there has to be at least 5 units booked & a marshall appointed. At the eleventh hour, 6 units were booked for the Norfolk show & Graham Thompson volunteered to act as the marshall so that the Meet could go ahead.
Being a small meet it was ideal for new members Rob & Iris to get ideas from other members such as "What do you keep in your boot?"
The success of any IHOC Meet depends on three essentials, volunteer organisers, a good campsite location and enthusiastic participants. The Camping and Caravanning camp site at Oswestry had excellent facilities including a heated meeting room; the site was in an attractive setting with pleasant walks and cycle rides from site and it had nearby bus stops with regular buses every hour to nearby towns.
Thornton’s Holt campsite near Nottingham was the venue chosen for this year’s Winter Meet and it proved to be a good choice, the sites new facilities had just been completed, which were appreciated.
