Going this year for the first time as well. Can only do one day so just wondering which is gonna be best. Im thinking Saturday (cant do sun) but am tempted by Friday being slightly less busy. Am I likely to miss owt amazing by going on the Friday?

You may miss a few famous faces but other than that Friday should be just as good and quieter

Fridays aren't really that much quieter than the other days these days...

Anyone know (or seen) what they have done up by the flint wall to include this new grandstand up there ?? i am thinking they must have cleared some trees out ??

ie. will there be new photo opportunities !??

I have a feeling it might be a damp one!

I'll take the World Weather online 14-day forecast (as pretty accurate in the past)
Thursday 22 Sunny
Fri 22 Patchy rain nearby
Sat 22 Sunny
Sun 26 Patchy rain nearby
10% chance of rain each day

That is not at all bad -more sunburn than trench foot I'd say
