Spoke to the organiser last night and he is not worried by any of the forecasts. The show goes on anyway. Looking forwards to coming the show as we have not been before.

Should be there on Thursday with the engine and we and living van arrive Friday lunchtime.

Are we going to have a TT meet, as so many of you seem to be going? Any suggestions as having not gone before do not know the lay of the land.

Come and say hello anyway.
