Crews,
As you are already no doubt aware that due to the distances / time involved in just getting there and back, the IMM 2012 in Hungary, will not be officially attended by a BCM sortie.
In view of this many ideas and suggestions have been put forward for consideration as an alternative, but what came through unanimously was the (English - not French!) Riviera Run at Trevelgue Holiday Park Newquay in Cornwall from the 29th April - 2nd May. This has been running for a number of years and is now sponsored by MiniWorld magazine. There is an organised cruise, specialised mini events, a 'show and shine', a festival village, an indoor pool and a week of live entertainment in the on-site bars! There is also the superb beaches and reputedly the best surfing available in the UK.
Please click on the link for further info. This site will also give you an idea of cost etc.
http://www.rivierarun.co.uk/ The intention at the moment is to travel down early on the Saturday morning (28th) for the show on the 29th - 2nd May and stay a couple of extra days/nights to return on the Sat 5th May. Accommodation is either camping or staying in 4, 6 7 or 8 berth caravans.
Can you please let me know asap if this genuinely interests you. If I can have a rough idea of numbers please before our next Committee meeting in a months time that would be superb.
Cheers Pip
