blimey I didn't know you could insure against weather! Good job if they did though.

Sunday definately had a better feeling about it but was still marred by the slightly inclement weather

I had a great time though and spent plenty of time chatting about my engine which is what it's all about I guess

I have visited Weeting for many years and it does seem to have lost a bit of the wow factor but can't put a finger on why.

I thought the insurance cover you could obtain was for total cancellation. It's a bit difficult to quantify how much your gate is down (the loss) due to inclement weather. However it's relatively simple to calculate your loss if the whole event is cancelled due to weather.

Given the poor weather forecast for the weekend, I went on the Friday. largely sunny morning, clouded over in the afternoon
My list of what I saw (pasted from a spreadsheet, hence a little bit untidy),not sure if anything else turned up on Sat or Sun.
