Weather forecasters don't always agree.... just checked out the weather on www.weather.com for Stratford upon Avon - this site claims that both Sat and Sun will be "mostly cloudy" with a 20% chance of rain and high temp of 19C. I'm backing the optimists!

Believe Metcheck, I've converted a few people at work to it.

www.weather.co.uk is generally good but not as accurate as metcheck.

Never believe BBC.CO.UK/Weather - I'm sure this is forecast by looking out of the window!

How about I keep you updated, I live half mile from Ettington Chase so I know exactly what the weather is doing here.

Will be nice to meet some of you as I'm coming along Saturday & for the BBQ. Dont worry, I'll park the S3 away from your Griffs hehe

Yep - keep a weather eye (sorry) so to speak and then see what it says the day before.

I'll repeat my call for anyone who has a small gazebo to bring it though just in case. We have a quite a number of vendors with marquees etc but I wouldnt want us to be driven indoors if it should rain

It'll be what it'll be - we'll still have a fab time whatever.
I've just looked at weather.co.uk and Fri-Sun shows a fair amount of cloud but no rain Thu-Wed so looking OK but these sites change regularly. Not too warm either.
More concerned about the BBQ.

Decided that I much prefer the www.metcheck.com to www.weather.co.uk - the former is MUCH more optimistic re the weekend weathersmile - this could definitely make me a convert if (when) it turns out sunny!

I guess the more it rains now the more chance it will be ok for the weekend yes

As everywhere else I think. Changes by the hour so don't worry.
God loves Griffs so i'm sure he'll shine down on us.

Pasco, if it rains at least your legs will stay dry.
