In all the years I've been going I've never seen the weather run up to be so mental! And then eventually turn out well!! Mad isn't it. I was fully expecting a bit of a rainy one based on this forum up until a few days ago. Not anymore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.Tease Posted June 23, 2019 Report Share Posted June 23, 2019 What a journey we’ve been on- 42c temps, torrential rain, biblical storms, rain every day, to possibly perfect weather now... fingers crossed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whenever anyone puts forward the theory that Boris is actually really clever pretending to be a buffoon, I wonder if they know about the water cannon.

Jay Pee Posted June 23, 2019 Report Share Posted June 23, 2019 I finally treated myself to a down filled sleeping bag a few months ago. They are expensive but really compact AND... Really warm. if this forecast remains the same, i will be lolling around in my apple catchers on the floor outside the tent impersonating Arnie when his visor cracks on Mars in Total Recall.

The glade is a nice emergency cooling spot on the Thursday- shaded and usually has a breeze. Strummerville is also a good cooling spot, but you have to first make it up the hill. The Woods might also be pleasant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
