23 degrees and a spot of rain... Looking forward to it!
Although it has just occurred to me that the hood is in my garden.

I can bring my half cover just in case you need it but you don't get wet until you stop. The weather forecast for Friday afternoon don't look to bad.

If the forecast continues to show thunderstorms for Friday then unfortunately we will not be going. But, will keep an eye on the weather and make a decision
on the day, if necessary.

Unfortunately the hood is still in the garden as the paint isn't hard enough to polish and reassemble :( so I'm not going to be able to make it.

Making decision early to not go on fish 'n chip run today.
Weather forecast later today not looking too good and soggy fish and chips doesn't sound appertising.
Unfortunately we are now unable to do 21st as we're returning from Ross-on-Wye on that day.

Maybe today's run is not a good idea looking at the weather forecast, has this got to be done on a Friday if not how about next Saturday the 22nd.

With which the forecast dried up!
I'm relatively close and it's one of my favourite places, if I'm free I'll go. I'll put the car back together over the weekend.

The trouble with going at the weekend is if it's a nice day it'll be packed, which isn't my idea of fun.

According to our neighbours who were in Dymchurch 2 weeks ago on Friday it was so crowded they couldn't find a parking place and had to park at St Mary's Bay.
Bloody Staycationers!

If we're all PROGs maybe a weekday would be better?
