Umm, you might want to check th latest weather updates.................................Fairford must know you are going to be there upto & including Saturday already X(
Sunday might end up being the better day.

Anyway enough of the doom and gloom, me being a typical Brit ,etc, etc.................................

ROLL ON SATURDAY :!! !
