I wouldnt be surprised if they cancelled tbh.

Hopefully it wont be totally abandonned though, just moved back a few weeks. Payments carried over from this time round to the next one, and if you want to drop out, you can have your money back etc etc.

Still. Bit of a boring weekend coming up now

Close but not that close, about 7 miles away. Won't really be able to tell what the roads are like apart from what I hear as we are not allowed cars at school!!

And Olly, bet we have just as many jokes . Amazing fun today, whole school snow ball fight, absolutely crazy. Sucks not having snow days though!!

I live aprox 10 mins from rutland today the roads have been awful the a1 has not been gritted I tried to get to work but cars were sliding down the slip roads has truly been shocking but all depends on wether or not something happens tonight.  major roads have now been cleared but who knows wether or not they will be maintained if it snows again.  Looks as though its going to be a cold weekend either way.

So how did they go? They're using a smaller main than mine, I'd asked for it
as a windy sail and a bigger kite.

Any results links and who were the 'they' as far as I knew there are a couple
out there doing the rounds.

Looks like another dump coming tonight, and not warming much to thaw it before next week.

It doesn't look hopeful

I am about an hour south of Rutland and would be going up the A1 to get there.  It very much looks like it is going to snow again very soon and today's snow is crisping up into ice, not melting away.

I know Chris is much closer than me.

If it's bad I'll be thinking twice about risking my boat on the roads, but I'd be happy to crew for anyone happy enough to risk theirs!

the same, but different...
