On this weekend! Ground conditions are very good, hard roads and mown grass anyway. They've only had a very minimal amount of rain this week too....

Yes, but lets try to look on the bright side eh! The showground stands up to the elements very well, tomorrow is looking a good day, so we can live in hope for the rest of the weekend.....
