Cornwall is darn good for me. But Like I said before WHY MOVE??? Wicksteed park 95% of all we need. The other 5% is cause there is a lack of a big lake where i can run my Makara and Hydro.  Roll on Llanberis 09.

I've just bought a caravan ready for the next Mayhem but it would be cruel to expect the missus to pull it all the way to Cornwall  {-) {-)

I'm afraid it's only got two bunks, Martin - a bit like myself, so I shall call one "Christmas" and the other "My birthday"  :o :o :o

And if you understand that     -     go any stand in the corner and think CLEAN thoughts  {-) {-) {-)

That place looks fantastic!
Not sure we could do the Mayhem Weekend in Norfolk (too many Mayhemers would need visas or parole wavers!  {-) )
 but let me know when you have your summer meet, I'd love to come!   :-))

Where is it?

Edit: Found it,  Norwich Model Boat Club - http://www.nmbc.fsnet.co.uk/
       See you August 30th   -   Annual Club BBQ and Open Day   10-4. pm   All Welcome (Inc Guests)

I need a bigger multi, that's what I need, the one I'm making next is far too small for the engine I'm putting in it...

I didn't like that christmas pudding though, that's why I ran over it for 5 consecutive laps...

If its doing fine where it is I would leave it there but it can be a long journey for some members. The Blue Water Shopping centre in Kent is a place I would recommend, as its got almost everything there. Great club Chantry MBC. large water, a big shopping centre 100 yards away, free parking, just off the M25 at the Darford tunnel Kent then down the M2 for a few miles.

Just to say i have nothing to do with this club just see its as a good place for the venue.  :-))

Think its best a different place every year. 

That way Mayhem gets to be known by more people in more areas of the country

Thats fair comment seaspray but you need somewhere where we can leave Gazeebos up from the fri to the sunday and also have a caravn and camping facility,not a lot of places have this Wickstead I am afraid gets my vote.
the only other place that can accomodate this is LLanberis which I am running in August

Hi Stav

Surely theres plenty of places in the country that will accommodate Gazebos  and R.V.s and have water for our boats. Just a case of  identifying them.

Anyway just an idea
