Not sure if this has been posted before, but  link shows the fire at the Sussex branch of Marquis. This is a few miles away from the Broomfield Farm Club Site.

    Oh dear, I remember a similar fire at Camper UK North Hykeham about 10 years ago. One or two vans in for service/work were lost. Hopefully this is not too traumatic an experience for owners and hopefully no injuries either.

    There was also a massive fire at Highbridge Caravans, Somerset 7 years ago with 161 vans destroyed and damage totalling £2m.

    As our posts have been removed I guess that Marquis are a major contributor to the club's finances through advertising charges.🤔😵

    I did wonder what was in the content of those posts which warranted removal. Still in the dark mind and I’m left guessing which isn’t helpful in any respect.
