Anyone living local that can update what is happening at a more local level??

Anyone actually IN Newark...

The showground isn't really in Newark... and Nottingham's really close anyway... so Hammerhead's current-weather predicition is probably pretty accurate!

Its the t'other side of Newark at Winthorpe, and I'm closer still...

Has stopped raining now, but the showground is a flat boggy mess when it rains - we used to do the Ag shows there.

Cheers

I'm not actually in Newark, but in Bleasby.
