It is with great saddness that I read this, I grew up in the area where this all started, the organisers were based in the village we lived in. I think it could be a wise but unfortunate decision, we are in uncharted waters ! Noel.

My daughter sent me that from Facebook last night, I'm not surprised, I rallied there for twenty years until 2019 and decided during Covid that I would not carry on in the future because of health issues, this summer I've noticed that whilst rally's are creeping back they are in some cases thinned down, not so many public and stall holders who were always attending were no longer attending.

Even the pub quiz has been greatly thinned down

You used to fight to get to the bar then fight for a corner to sit the team together in

Now you just stroll in, get a drink and sit in what used to be the impossible to get seats

Apart from the fearties there are a huge number of people with underlying health issues in the UK and covid has changed their lifestyle choices forever

Plus there's the cost of living issue for some
