Hopefully the setup I now have on the van will have coverage, this will be a good test for it.

Newsflash

A man wearing a TSHIRT was seen packing ready to go to Lostock. Details are sketchy but he is believed to be 130KG, 180cm and has dark brown hair. As you see in this police produced identikit, a likeness of the person of interest has been provided.

BE VERY AFRAID - he is toting IISAC 2008 TSHIRTS

If the worst of the weather is in the middle of the week we should be OK - even benefit from it as it will clear the air!

That's my positive spin on it anyway..........

It's also about meeting new interesting people and catching up with people we don't see enough.

There are just as many stars on the ground!

I'll still pout if it's cloudy but to be fair this year has been pretty good as far as the weather goes on new moon weekends.

guys look on the bright side - if the storms come through they could clear the air of dust and stuff - there would be no smoke from fires and well maybe wash the car. lets hope for clear air

Narayan i will be sorry i will miss meeting you on saturday
