Redcar Racecourse New year 2010

For once we were not expecting family this New Year and had negotiated a few extra days off work.  We were booked onto our first new year rally with our new friends in the Northern Counties Motor Caravanner's Club.  Previously New Years Eve was fairly ignored to avoid the drunks wandering around the town streets and the overcrowded and expensive pubs.  We have always enjoyed Christmas more but now we had made lots of friends within the club we booked up expectantly.

Again the snow had been bad for weeks but we managed to make our way to Redcar with fairly clear roads.  By the time we arrived the hosts had spent a day clearing the car park of snow in preparation for the 40 vans attending.

The entertainment was great, the catered buffet was great and the company was fantastic.  The venue was just a short walk into the town centre past local supermarkets and onto the sea front promenade.  It was one of the best new years eve events we had been to since we were just courting and before the children came along!
