CaledonianGonzo Posted June 17, 2022 Report Share Posted June 17, 2022 2016 at least had a dope lineup. 2007 was near peak late noughties MOR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am hoping that the breeze / wind forecast will be really useful at making people feel more comfortable if it is warm, especially @FuzzyDunlop Problem with that is that it can also feel so cooling that people forget to cover up / put on suncream.

Tangolove944 Posted June 17, 2022 Report Share Posted June 17, 2022 Basically, bring an umbrella. For either shade or showers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The latest GFS which has hotter weather also has less wind (I think). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kalifire Posted June 17, 2022 Report Share Posted June 17, 2022 Get to a tap and put your wrists up under the cool water. It’ll send that cooler blood around your body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SighMo Posted June 17, 2022 Report Share Posted June 17, 2022 Apologies if teaching anyone to suck eggs but these are a great idea. I go on fairly long runs in the any heat fuelled by 500mls of this without taking any fluids with me. Always give anyone in our group some in the mornings to kickstart the day; great hangover help too. They sell them in Tesco. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mind it so much on a Sunday as you're going home the next day, but yes being stuck in the car park with a hangover is pretty grim.

Quark Posted June 17, 2022 Report Share Posted June 17, 2022 Getting happy I topped up on this stuff. It's pricey, but by God it's good and because it lasts so well you have to reapply a lot less frequently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
