All those trees should shelter us from the wind (and the baking sun)

Knowing weather for-casters - don't rely on it.
I will be bringing some P5 brollies! and try out my new-to-me waders!!!

I have just found out something that for some could be disturbing....
Toilet facilities are only available inside the grounds. I am afraid this is out of our control.
National Trust Members are OK but none NT will be expected to pay the entrance fee to gain access to the toilets.

Kindest regards,

I'm sorry, but that is ridiculous! £11.25 to take a pee! (What a con).

Chuckles · 28th March 2015, 20:15

Just had an update from Jan & Steve White , thank you.
“ .... just gone on the Kingston Lacy site and they have put an announcement up saying due to the windy weather tomorrow the gardens and woodland walks will be closed, the rest will be open as usual....”

Sorry

Decided not to make it .
as:
Pouring Down, very windy and very Cold here ..

and not that far away..

C.

PS, just stop raining here 14:00.. still cold and windy.

Chuckles · 29th March 2015, 13:29

What an 'orrible day, still a few made it in the end.

Thank you Gazzv6 for inviting us and allowing the old'n's to join in. It was good to meet up at last. It was great to meet some R75 chums we hadn't seen for a while. Pity about the weather it made for difficult conversation. We hope the drive back home was OK and you are feeling better now.

So out of nine P5's booked in only five made it! I think there was a total of 13 cars in all managed the trip, so not a bad effort considering the day.

Well Done everyone
Mary & Chuck
