My first v was last year when it only rained for minutes on Friday, I can imagine it would be funny to see all the mud but after a few minutes I'm sure it would of worn off.... Fingers crossed for sunshine

based on this it's gonna be good weather!

As from this weekend, the weather reports will start to be more reliable. Even the most hardened forcaster can't give an accurate forecast more than a week in advance. BBC and Met Office usually the best sites to keep tabs on.

All eyes on those sites early next week.

I have a view on what to expect, but I won't tempt fate.

Ughh 08 was funny for a bit then I just got fed up of not being able to move. I was in the tent watching The Chems when the rain came down and there was water pouring from the roof.

Awww The Verve in the rain was immense!! All those people soaked but still singing, I think whatever the weather good music and good people always means a good time in my book! (but a bit of sunshine would be nice)

I'm taking a borrowed poncho from my auntie and its a one size fits all, I took it out of the packet tonight and its absolutely huge, hehe, (it must be an american one size fits all!) - it would honestly fit about 4 people under it...., i'm gonna look like im wearing a tent, hehe, so i'm definitely hoping for no rain now...

Check out dates from Mon 16th to Sun 22nd. Looking promising. High pressure means settled weather.

Monday 16 August 2010 to Sunday 22 August 2010

"Cheerier prospects as pressure builds

High pressure will remain slow-moving to the southwest of the British Isles, with a strong ridge of high pressure becoming established across all areas.

Given their proximity to the high, southern parts of England will benefit most from above average amounts of sunshine. Temperatures will be well above average in this region and above average across many other areas.

Rainfall, not surprisingly, will also fall well short of the seasonal norm, and even in the north of Britain, where conditions will be a little more unsettled, rainfall will be below par. "

According to that Friday afternoon is going to be awful. Sounds bit like 2 years ago. The actual days when music playing not that bad.

Some rain on the Saturday but not much. This is a big change though to what they said yesterday, so hopefully will change again

What will be, will be I guess. Still have a fantastic time either way

Noooooo!!!!!

[craig-g]

It does seem to change greatly every day so hopefully by tues/weds may be more certain of what to expect.

I can cope with a bit of rain on friday....that will be fine, and so far so good for sunshine on the sat and sun...whooo hooo

[Liblar]

Positive mental thinking, hehe

[sammy-joe]

dont mind rain friday as long tents up and all the stuff out the car is in the tent

[Angelis]

metcheck cant make up their minds anyway, you look on the normal forcasts and it shows sun, but you look on detailed days and it says rain rain rain... time will tell if its sunburn or mudbaths
