We called in on our way to La Baule this afternoon and it was quite dry to be fair, no standing water at all and no boggy patches. The usual crap left over from the bikers,oa k a rake just in case you have a pitch with lots of nails on

Looks like there will be some rain around.

Wednesday - rain in the morning and then again around 4pm, both time not heavy. More rain in the evening around 8/9pm and heavier.
Thursday - rain around 6pm but light
Friday - rain around 4/5pm.
Saturday - light rain at random times through the day.
Sunday - like Saturday but less rain.

Pitches are allocated. Early means we are set up and ready for all the practice and quali.

Whatever it takes to secure good weather! You’ll have to ask him to stay still though - my aim isn’t what it used to be...

Latest local report (FWIW) is dry Friday and Saturday but perhaps showers on Sunday. Since the forecast has changed many times since a week ago just take what comes. The cars are thundering round as I type, but it is not raining.

Cold and sporadic heavy showers on Houx (about 8/9 miles from you Lowdrag?)

Bloody cold sitting in the stands last night. Lazy breeze that goes right through you instead of around you!
