Yes Allan, I would have been annoyed and miserable that the weather was not co-operating yet again at Ilford. In the early days of the SPSP the organisers had supposedly looked at historic weather records which showed May as the best time to hold the party. Perhaps it is like bad weather at sea (or in the air) you tend to remember the shockingly bad days, rather than all the good ones.
In the late 90's the date was moved to March. Too hot and daylight saving were the reasons I did not like that date. Why they have never held the SPSP in April, I do not know. It seems an excellent compromise, so I hope the committee is reading this.
