I hadn't heard about that either.
I'd better not type what I think of someone doing that!

Ey up Dave, hows that Cerb going?
Well, last month was my first Ashby, was hoping to attend this month in the R32 but looks like it'll be the Audi...
But the weather does look a bit touch and go...

I know conditions were extremely dry but we've had over 30mm of rain over the weekend with more forecast in the next 12 hours

I beg to differ: http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...July 2007. Utter chaos as the cricket pitch is closed. I reckon Ashby is a least double the size it was then so double the amount of chaos. Best bet is to ring the pub on 01664 841 234 to find out if the pitch is open.

Next month... I hadn't made any plans based on the weather report on Monday. Jason is busy anyway.
