Might be an idea to take a sickbag if you are going Chatteris way in a Defender!
Fen road is pretty bouncy!

As promised, A weather update!
Forecast has deteriorated a bit over the last few days.
Now on showers on the Sat. late showers on the Sunday. Temps are fine, 16-17 degrees, winds moderate. Should be fairly comfortable in the showground, just duck the showers, or wear waterproofs!
Conditions on the ground were bad yesterday, howling wind and heavy squally showers. Bit nicer today, dry, cold, and windy.
I will be going whatever the weather, on the Saturday at least,

Bit hard to say, the forecast is changing almost as quickly as the weather. Ground is not saturated, due to the time of year. No rain today, strong wind and sun will have dried the ground, and only showers predicted, not continuous rain, until the event.
So I would have thought ok, but I am not really the person to ask. I never sleep in tents. My boat is much better, and even before I had a boat, I would always sleep in a vehicle rather than a tent. Estate car or a big hatchback with an air mattress is ansum.

Lot of spiders round here at the moment. They are mounting a full frontal assault on my boat.
Best of luck with the journey. Are you on a stall, or just going to the event?
