Excellent Job YORK MAG

York MAG “ONE NIGHT STAND RALLY”

The 'One Night Stand Rally' run by York MAG is traditionally the party for all the marshals who work at the Farmyard Party and party they did. The rally raised £1000 for the Marshals Flood Appeal including proceeds from the splendid raffle and auction. Also a big thanks to the Halfway Heros MCC who donated £300 to the Flood Appeal.

Pete Squires reflects on the weekend

At very short notice the landlord of The School House Inn, Low Marishes phoned up and told John (the York & District M.A.G Rep) he had sold the pub and so no rally could be held at the pub. Arse and feck!

All run around waving arms and anything else at hand until hot and sticky.

So the hunt was on for a new site and John ‘Bust a Blood Vessel’ Lawson came up with the goods - a new site! Harrah! Jolly good show what what!!

The fact that the new site was much better was also rather jolly too. Proper toilets showers and the site had an on-suite pub (for he’s a jolly good fellow etc etc…) so The One Night Stand was on.

The weather was booked, the band and D.J where told of the new site and that was that. On with the show. Or was it?

The band did their stuff and Paul (the D.J.) Rutledge played all and everything to keep the baying hordes happy past the witching hour. Which was nice.

Much ale was consumed over a short space of time by all but a few that where on duty, but they made up for it later. It was a chilled-out rally with top raffle prizes and an auction.

The Beer Made Some Laugh Some Just Stared Into Space

All went off without a hitch, except a foul smell coming from the bottom of the campsite where East Yorkshire MAG was camping.

They had the misfortune to camp near the septic tank for the toilets!

A lot of pie eating, burger munching, and beer drinking had beaten the septic tank into submission, and so it was going to wreck its revenge and reek it did over the low lands of the campsite. It was fine at the top, oh titter ye not...

All in all a nice rally, and given the short notice well done to one and all and here’s to the next.

To all that came to York MAG 'One Night Stand’ and made it such the success it was Thank You.

And to all that worked it, well done.

Job’s a good un.
