Pob 545 Posted April 8, 2016 Current Met Weather forecast Saturday:A cloudy morning with outbreaks of rain. This will gradually clear from the west during the morning with a mix of sunny spells and scattered showers for the afternoon. Maximum Temperature 10 °C. BBC weather says pretty much the same so very good chance that's its going to be a wet start in the morning . Suppose this meeting depends on how much rain they get in the morning .

Alan_Jones 1,005 Posted April 8, 2016 Any rockets fan tell me if the fish and chips are back up to scratch? Had the fish at the first meeting and it was certainly better than recent times though maybe not quite as good as the early days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

startline sid 157 Posted April 9, 2016 Wish i'd have made the trip down to Lakeside last night, it sounded like a cracker ! Yes it was a really good meeting. There is lots of rubbish said about how bad the elite league is but it was a fine evenings racing with both teams really going for it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
