Hi

We were there - in our tent with ehu.  There were hardly any tents though, all caravans and motorhomes.  Still we had a great time - such a friendly atmosphere in our area (E), It was our first rally of any kind and enjoyed it so much, we'll be going on another one sometime - possibly the national feast of lanterns next year.  Pixieland Norfolk, did you enjoy? 

Had a BRILL time,we were in A with the brass band.Like you said hardly any tents and we had no ehu,so no fridge but went to sainburys just down the road,air bed got a hole in it and one of our chairs bit the dust.You must have seen us we were the tent on a strip of grass just by the arena,we had a garden frog by the tent,cant go to feast of latterns i am working and i got a suntan

Hi,

Pleased you enjoyed the rally (apart from the equipment).  We too got a suntan, whilst everyone back at home was paddling in the rain! 

We stayed at the Hemsby Touring and Caravan Park (next to the Long Beach one).  The site had two fields, one with a portacabin for facilities and the other (which we were on) had a brick built toilets/shower area.  The toilets etc were clean, the site was mostly flat, but nothing special.  An icecream van came round the site at least once a day.  Pitches were spacious with ehu.  A single track road took you down towards the sand dunes and beach, with Hemsby only about 10 mins walk away.  One thing I hadn't seen before though, was in Hemsby, inbetween some of the houses near to the Long Beach site, small plots of land had ehu and spaces were rented out for 1 unit.  It looked quite strange having these tents or caravans pitched inbetween the houses. 

Good luck with the tour - Norfolk is a lovely part of the country, we'll be staying somewhere near Sea Palling next year.
