robmar Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 time to start the new season ritual of checking weather forecasts 5 days before the event Saturday is looking good on bbc sunny intervals and 14 degrees C , and the weather channel says am clouds , pm sun and 16 degrees C rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SV Gary Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Met office - sunny all day 17 degrees Metcheck - rain in morning, sunny intervals in afternoon To early to determine yet - wise old owl from the Met Office once told me never look at weather forecast greater than 3 days out - not reliable enough. The lead dog always gets the best view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matthew Willoughby Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 You confused me then - I misread it and thought you said squirrel Ok, it is more or a "squarel" and they are a PITA to stick on without getting loads of bubbles.

Mark Gibson Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 Suzanne and I won't be at Goodwood so just wanted to wish everyone attending on Saturday a great event. Our season kicks off at Llandow (assuming our entry is accepted) so we shall look forward to seeing you then. Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GregP Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Matthew, where did you get the 'squarells' from? Mine are getting a bit ragged so I could do with new ones but can't find any on the internet. Have fun at Goodwood everyone! Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rgrigsby Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Greg I've just bought some vinyl from a local shop, it's quite a big piece so I'm sure there will be some spare once I've cut out some squares for my car if you'd like to have it.

Charlies Angel Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 Sitting here 2.5miles from Goodwood and looking out the window at the lovely blue sky, the good news is that there is a strong sea breeze to blow the rain through tonight. Local forecast is dry by about 9.00am. As I wont be getting out of bed until about 7.00am, I should hardly see it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
