Just had to happen I suppose - been the driest period we've had for years but on the one weekend we need it to be on our side it decides to pi$$
down....
Current forecast looks not too bad for the middle part of the day, just an occasional light shower by the looks of it, so hopefully it won't put
too many people off. I'd bring a brolly though..

No No not the hairy bacon, that stuff looked very wrong mate.
Forecast is a bit better than it was a couple of days ago, i will bring the gazebo with wind deflecting thingys so we can boil a brew.
I would suggest people bring something to sit on and a cup/mug, any veggies coming i have a spare dispo barbq

Just got home after a wet M25 return journey. Nice to see Geoff, John and Bob and good to be able to use Bob's gazebo, windbreak and bbq.
Hope you got home fairy dry, Bob!
Cheers

Soaked
Spent a few minutes hiding under the first bridge i came to on the M25, then a very wet with extreme weather for the rest of the journey.
Home safely though. 
Nice to catch up anyway, shame the rain kills enthusiasm but hey ho it is summer and it is England.
Hope everyone else managed to get home ok.

....no such luck unfortunately, Bob and myself managed to time our exit so we hit a monsoon-like rainstorm just as we got onto the M25. Bob has no
hood and the last I saw of him was as he pulled off the carriageway to find some shelter under an overbridge.
I carried on but the carriageway was totally awash for several miles, all lane markings obliterated and a sea of spray in fairly heavy traffic, not
what 888's were really designed for.... All a bit scary in a seven, especially when an ominous misfire set in just to compound the misery.
Anyway, eventually got home safely, hope Bob made it back without too trouble as well...
Beat me to it Bob, glad you got home ok.

No worries geoff, just glad you got home ok as well.
I'll just say it was a bit of a scarey drive with water on the inside of the screen too, also my glasses had to go as vision just got worst.
Was a lot better once i passed T5 exit and the idiots who didnt know where they were going.
I think i will drop back to fair weather driving to breakfast meets, whos up for breakfast at newlands next sunday ?

I made the right decision then
Sorry to wimp out but with no wet-weather gear .........
I'm addicted to brake fluid, but I can stop anytime.

I checked on this site this morning, and seeing the radar showing rain sweeping across, chickened out, even though I do have a hard top, (wimp). I
just don't like skating in a car, :-) Cheers Ray
