Members from all points of the South West region gathered at Lower Poulza Post naturist camping and caravan site, situated on a working farm, near Bude in Cornwall over the weekend for the annual Rally. With lovely weather a bonus, the weekend started with smiles and high expectations of a relaxed and friendly couple of days, and from the beginning to the end that’s what you got. We gathered on the Friday evening for a glass of bubbly around the campfire and new friendships were soon made or friends reunited.
Saturday was a glorious day and after a very relaxed morning and Cornish Pasties for lunch, some just laid in the sun all afternoon while others with a competitive edge enjoyed a couple of hours playing Boules before the communal BathBQ in the evening. Perhaps the only BBQ to feature a full size bath in the region, if not the UK, was soon glowing and ready for use with many taking the advantage of cooking the farm's own sausages, burgers and pork chops.
After the glorious sun of the last two days, Sunday was a little disappointing, but with a Cornish Cream Tea planned for mid morning the pending rain obliged holding off until exactly 12 Noon, then rain arrived sending everyone scurrying for cover. With dark skies and a good Cornish Mizzle set in for the afternoon, almost everyone made a quick pack and headed for home a little sooner than hoped.
Plans are already being made for next year so put 19-21 June 2020 in your diary.
