Sunday 9th April 2017 (just two days away!) sees the Norbreck Rally in Blackpool. As usual we will be running a SOTA stand and will be most glad to see old faces and new!
More information at the NARSA Web site:
Doors will open at 10.30 and 10:15 for those with disabilities.
Hello Simon. I hope you have a great day with the SOTA stand at the Norbreck Rally.
Best Wishes to all. 73 de Paul M0CQE.
Will be my first time there. Hope to meet a few activators and chasers. Regards Mark M6VMS
I will be there complete with two poles for the SOTA stand’s banner.
Thank you Richard.
I intend to be at the rally.
I’ll be bringing the world famous Mountain Goat rig built on the summit of Whernside earlier this year. 
There’s also a possibility of the world debut of the Hilltop 20 SOTA rig.
Look forward to meeting friends old and new.

We should be there early on , Glad the poles are sorted, will bring a couple of clamps and lots of tape, Audrey is busy at the baking, I am not allowed in 'cos I keep pinching little sausage rolls.

I’m intending to be there. I made the trip last year for the first time, and really enjoyed it.
I’ve even used some of the bits and pieces that I bought there

Greetings from a mild and overcast Benidorm. I had a wander round with some of the guys in the band last night and the place reminded us very much of Blackpool. But not in a good way.
Thanks to Rob, Audrey, Simon, Mark, Andy, Colin and anyone else helping to promote SOTA today. Sorry to miss the event, but this was just too big a gig to turn down!
Have a great day everyone.
Nice to see lots of folk. Thanks Audrey for the cake!
Yes, thanks to Audrey for the sausage roll, great to put faces to the voices.
May the sunshine continue.
