Only going as a visitor, the field is a bit rough for small engines. Been going for years and always enjoy it.

We are driving our Wallis over from Tickhill Saturday morning - very early start.
Sound like we might get a bit damp if the forecast is right.

No problems at all.
Called in for an hour this afternoon, as I was passing by on the way North.
Saw a couple of new engines to me.
All moving about just fine.
Great little rally.
Had a bonus of free entry too, as it was 3.45 when we got there.

I had never been to this event before, but went at the last minute this year. A cracking rally. I would just like to thank the organisers for making us so very welcome. The rally site is perfect, but I think more Commercials, cars and stationionary should go. Thanks to all in involved . We had a great time and nice to meet people we didn't no. Put the date date in your books for next year.

I agree a brilliant rally I have been going a number of years with our miniature,really good organisation and a real happy rally,I think they could hold a rally in the middle of winter on that rock solid field!!

Happy rally sums it up - its relaxed and friendly - nothing is too much trouble for the organisers, even a map to the local supermarket is available! Beer is £2.50 a pint which is pretty good compared to most rallies, play pen which everyone can use - a great weekend!

Always a good rally at Sheffield , the playpen is a big plus in my opinion .
The weather could have been better on Sunday but other than the one rain interlude it was dry if overcast .
I don't know how much rain there was in the area before the show but the ground was very firm .
