The 2018 Kempton Rally took place on Sunday the 15th of April. Normally, there are two rallies a year at the Kempton Racecourse, but this year, the April event is to the be only one.
As always, the rally seemed to be a pretty popular event, with people travelling quite a distance to attend.
It was great to see some familiar faces making the trip from Essex, including amateurs from clubs including CARS, Dengie Hundred ARS, Essex CW Club, Martello Tower Group, SEARS, TARG and Thurrock Acorns, as well as quite a number of Essex Ham members.
It was also good to catch up with Essex Ham members from elsewhere in the country, including Ed M0MNG (from the ICQ podcast), Tony 2E0TSA (man of action from Catford who often joins out net DX) and Selim M0XTA (representing the new Hammersmith club)

Thanks to Martin Lynch for the coffee on the way to the rally. Great idea opening the store early to allow visitors to the rally to have a look around the store and pick up a bargain!
