I've always got a pile of retired running Adidas running shoes that I save for wrecking at festivals.

This! I tend to use a well used pair of trainers to get me around in the dry festivals.

Hope our old pal Nal is ok. Where’s he gonna get his kicks now?

It’s only Sunday. As good as it looks it can still throw up some total f**keries. Don’t anger the Nal.

Not sure if anyone’s said it yet, but happy countryfile forecast day!

That's actually yesterday's (odd BBC tagging). It starts with the forecast for Sunday early doors.

The one that is in Countryfile is first on BBC1 at 13.10.

Really looking great. Just hoping with this nice welcoming weather on Wed, the queue at PDA goes down quickly and I can just breeze in when I arrive (around 1:30pm).

I'm on the coach from Victoria arriving at 1:30. You on the same one? 

Wednesday could be a LITTLE bit cooler, but I'll take it. Sunday still 1-2 degrees too high. But as always with the past few. STICK.

Here's what will become Countryfile weather. 

We really wanna see that finger!

Pretty good! Bullets to dodge on Tuesday and still slightly worried about proximity of the Atlantic low Friday. 
 

Although in 2005 this was where first signs of Friday’s storm appeared so great forecast in that context. I am still scarred.

The weather radar app I use is suggesting there might be NO rain!

There’s still plenty of time for it all to change. Never forget…

 

Please don't remind me

I was camped half way up Pennards and woke up to find two rivers rushing down around 6 feet either side of my tent. My son, who had arrived slightly earlier had by chance picked a slightly elevated patch of ground

This seems unlikely from https://www.netweather.tv/live-weather/radar but for sure the mass of the storms is passing further east so chances of anything torrential flooding bits seems very low

Evening plans have been changed here though cos no thanks to that

Ah no, coming from Bristol. 12pm, arrive about 1:15, thru by 1:30?

Fingers crossed 🤞🏻
