A good group of LRS members again attended the annual Norbreck Rally in Blackpool on Sunday 21st April 2024. They had travelled down from Edinburgh the previous afternoon and enjoyed a nice social evening in the Bispham Hotel pub and the Sunam Indian Restaurant before spending the night in the Brincliffe Hotel and going to the Norbreck Castle Hotel for the rally on Sunday. Tnx to Colin GM4HWO for all the photos.
