The Friday weather forecast suggests that the weather will be grim on Sunday... 
I suggest that everyone who's planning to go should have a look at this thread at around 10:00 on Sunday morning, to see if everyone else is
planning to turn up!
The forecasts have been rubbish lately, but if it does look it's going to persist down then maybe we can postpone to the Sunday after (13th
July).

I think that we'll have to stick to traditional forecasting... look out of the window shortly before the journey!

Every weather site I've just looked at say rain around lunchtime...
I do want to go, but not if it means getting wet - and SWMBO wants to come along, and she will be unimpressed if she gets wet...

well weather seems to be holding so i am going to go for it....
This will be the first run out >10miles since all my breakdown issues, HP fuel system has now been totally reworked and bonnet vents added... so
fingers crossed!
If you see me parked at the side of the road looking p*ssed off then you know i haven't fixed the problem yet!

Sigh...
Got three-quarters of the way there and drove into a major cloudburst - did a quick U-turn and raced it home...
Hope the rest of you kept dry...

Was chucking it down here about 11.30 so thought I would give it a miss. Perhaps we can rearrange it with a bit more notice ?

I went.
At one point there was:
An Avon
A Velocity
A Libra
and
A Noble M12 GTO3
It did rain slightly at about 12.30, but then I had to leave to watch the GP.....

well i made it there and back! just caught a little rain in the last mile home..
I had some trouble before setting off, an o ring had gone on one of my injectors and was peeing fuel out eveywhere, quick trip to halfords for a new o
ring and I was away...
Car ran well all the way, put 58 miles on it today without real incident.... still don't trust it yet though! had a minor issue with the oil
catch tank overflowing but nothing serious.
