Jane.

I might see you at the Celtic Warriors then Jane, but I'm not doing the Memba Rally this year as it just seems to get smaller and smaller each year...

Any idea who we have to tickle to play there again? Last 2 NABD gigs were a riot and I know we'd be up for some more!!

Best thing is to contact NABD head office, and Shirly may be able to put you in touch with Rick Hulse about booking a slot.

Hope to see you there

used to do heaps of rallies then i got married and wife not into that scene / camping and lays big guilt trip each time I go to one

still manage 3 or 4 a year though and avoid all large commercial ripoff rallies run by back patch clubs

rallies in europe are more laid back

Ah the Kent Custom show. It used to be on my doorstep, in fact I first asked my missus out at one of them - when it was held in Stone Street before they moved to Angel Field on the Marsh. She got hammered on Pippin Cider (about half a gallon if I recall) was sick on my shirt and I asked her out. Later that night an 18 stone Hells Angel tripped over and fell on her and she didn't remember a thing about it the next day. I even missed Dr. Feelgood's set to look after her - happy days!

First one I went to was when it was held up at the old Halfway Cafe in Harrietsham now (think I'll shut up as I'm showing my age).

Just got back from it myself last weekend, always an absolutely banging rally, this one and the Farmyard Rally are my two "must-do" rallies every year!

You may recognise the beer tent poles in the background of my Avatar, just gotta climb them after the 9th or 10th beer!
