Burstner
I have just been told that Burstner are not attending the NEC this month, I'm booked in to the caravan club site at the NEC just to see the new range of Burstners. Why would a company with such a great range of new motorhomes not attend a big show like this? We tried to view them in October but there were to many people climbing all over them.

Wellhouse Marathon Challenge 2010
From David Elliott at Wellhouse Leisure
Rather than read on for the punch line at the bottom we can get it out of the way now! This is a begging/sponsorship request e-mail where I go all humble, but then again its sort of a bet so read on before deleting it first!
