Got home Wednesday at 18.10 as we didnt want to leave the site, another great grand tour and the camp was perfect. A BIG thank you to Terry and Linda, all the marshalls, the bikers and a special thanks to Vince who tired me out just watching him. My son's first tour in his mini and he's already planning next year (another one hooked). Nice to catch up with everyone from last year and all the new faces, such a friendly lot (even the Brighton lot ) roll on 2011

There is a Classic Car meet near Taunton on Sunday 5th Sept details below
"ANNOUNCEMENT FOR THIS YEAR'S MEETING: After twelve, enjoyable, years at Hatch Beauchamp we now have a NEW VENUE: The Parklands by THE MOUNT SOMERSET HOTEL, Henlade, Taunton. Again, just off the A358 east but only a mile and a half from junction 25 of the M5 - it is easily found, just follow the 'car meeting' signs. Adorned with trees, this attractive and much larger area will provide room for even more vehicles if needed. The format will remain exactly the same, including food available on site, also from the Mount Somerset Hotel: 01823 442500, or bring a picnic. Even if it is poor weather the meeting will always go ahead, as was the case in 2008. The weather leading up to the event was appalling, even so it was not enough to deter the drivers of well over 600 vehicles "
(Bideford Carnival is i think on the 11th Sept) |

it was brilliant! some 'snapshots' of my LGT include:
- The Vince clone looking after our camp site. Every time I looked there was a Vince busy doing something (he/they were very generous with his/their jumbo nuts too.....)
- The camp site - massive, safe for kids to run around and apparently with good trees to climb (and until the sun came out, my new wellies!
)
- Watching Luke collecting money at the carnival - he's very... er... direct (poor kid must take after his grandmother...)
- The Big Sheep - so many from there - Mark sat in the middle of a jumping pillow giggling like a girl, trying to get up, Chris screaming like a girl going down the drop slide, Richard saying he wouldn't go down the slide and then going down repeatedly when Luke asked if he was going again..., tying ourselves in knots on the carousel (we got told off when we tried it on another visit mind you)
- Flo's masterpiece Bill and Ben and the Shaun the sheep mini
- The fantastic sunshine (finally) on a bank holiday monday
- The random pockets of people dotted around the country side as we drove by
- The amount of money raised
I'm sure there are more... |

Well what can I say this years LGT was the best yet why?
First of all the LGT campsite was fantastic much better then Braddicks the toilets and showers were really nice the feild its self was massive plenty of space for the kids to run around the evenings in the Gazebo were great chilled out and relaxed (and now cheesy music being played at full volume) ASlthough it rained while we were setting the tents etc up it still didn't really spoil the atoshpere.
Thursday saw a groupl of us attend Ilfracombe carnival which was a good chance to promote the LGT!
The booking in went really well and as for the 3 runs well words can not discribe to thoose who weren't there what it was really like they were Awesome Mondays run was increadable all the Fancydress and Mini decoraed it great to see and created a real carival atmoshere. It never ceases to amaze me how many people stand at the side of the roads to watch us go by and support the CHSW.
The Big Sheep was brillant not only did they give anyone reduced etance fees but unlimited free returns for the wekk!! And then they opened up their indoor play area fexcluidvely for thoose on the LGT and it was free.
I would like to say thank you to everyone Terry, Linda, THe motorbike Marshalls, My Fellow Mini Marshalls, THe Big Sheep , Everyone who took part in the LGT and the 1000's of members of the public who stood at the side of the roads to support us.
I'll be back next year and also have my name down for the lejog next year |

What can I add our lot had a great time, big thanks to Terry and linda, all the bike marshals, all the other marshals and all behind the scenes for making LGT 2010 a fantastic event. We will be back next year. Roll on LGT 2011, can't wait
Ger, Jules, Dawn, Jane, Joe, Bethan & Naomi |

My 2nd NDGT - and already looking forward to my 3rd next year (and maybe LEJOG the year after ). Much better camping than at Braddicks (note to self - pitch tent on flat bit not sloping bit).
