Mimmo 1,070 Posted July 3, 2010 This is the fixture that I look forward to more than any other in my calendar, and sincerely hope the weather will be good for tomorrow. Do any of you good Buxton folk know what the forecast is for tomorrow, as it's a heck of a long drive for a rain-off. If the forecast is good, then I'll leave home at the crack of dawn, and make a day of it in the Peak District, where I can visit my favourite cake shop in Bakewell. If it's not to good, then maybe I'll delay my journey until later in the morning, but would rather not do that, as the Fowler & Welch lorries tend to hog the A17 come mid-morning, racing along at about 25mph!! Any team news from either camp yet please? I assume that we'll be using R/R for Simon Lambert, who will be otherwise occupied in Glasgow for his new club Sheffield. Okay, I've asked my questions of you, I've been good to both the wife and the cat, and I've said nice things to him upstairs, so here's hoping!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mimmo 1,070 Posted July 3, 2010 Oh dear, has Buxton been washed away by flood water, not a single reply. Guess I'll go to Mildenhall v Isle of Wight instead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The sun is blazing down here this morning, and we've decided to make the journey although it's only 6.00am in the hope. Bakewell should be waking up by the time we arrive for breakfast. Here's hoping for a good meeting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
