Track should be good. Been dry all day.

Have a safe journey. Keep an eye on the Poole website and twitter feed in case we get a heavy rain shower.

Gutless. Or more than likely about 300 miles from Wimborne Road.

Don’t waste your time with it then. Simple.

Fair comment. I was considering track not car park.

A good chance been dry in Poole all day though there is rain forecast for tomorrow morning. If we can dodge some of the heavy stuff we should be fine. But if we get a deluge that will be that and Leicester away next Monday will be our opener.

Nah Ollie this is a good laugh. Haven’t enjoyed myself on here in ages. Lol!

Come and introduce yourself. I sit just behind the starting gate. Or, I will be chatting with Phil and/or Rob B on the first bend before the meeting.

Just for you. Print it off and stick it on your bedroom wall. https://www.dropbox.com/s/gd4x6ehqsnu66u3/IMG_1630.JPG?dl=0

Stop talking and get to work. Lazy and bone idle comes to mind.

Eh? How on earth is £4 too expensive? Costs more for a Costa and biscuit.

Couple of days ago though. Once it stopped raining that could be removed pretty quickly with a guy with a pump.

Well considering that Thursday has high pressure over the country and no rain forecast, it stinks to be honest.

Only £4? Bargain. No wonder so many kids come to Poole.

Lol! We have plenty to crow about. A superb looking team. Looking forward to coming up to Belle Vue on the 16th. Should be a great nights speedway. Bring the tissues.

Better than your promotion. Calling off a meeting yesterday when it was dry the best part of the day stinks the sport out. Last nights meeting could easily have run and you know it. Look what they used to ride in. Now I am not advocating a return to riders coming out racing in this, but the slightest threat or possibility of rain in the next few days and the postponed signs go up. Not acceptable.

Call it a nice gesture. Doesn’t have to do it.

So you think calling meetings off days in advance is acceptable, when the forecast is reasonably promising? It’s a terrible precedent to set, and one that was unheard of until recently. Two days in advance because there’s a risk of rain? You are having a laugh if you think that’s acceptable. Anyway its dry in Poole with sunny periods with the risk of an occassional shower this morning. No problem. Tomorrow showers in the morning dying out to give a dry late afternoon and evening. Unless the forecast changes there’s no reason why it shouldn’t go ahead. Matt Ford is giving the first 300 kids through the gates a free easter egg. Nice gesture from the club.

No. I have checked the site and its not there again. You need to login, then click the Gold package link. Various payment methods are available but the ebay one is again missing, giving credence to the fact that as soon as someone signs up with this method it vanishes until goldvod put it up again. Best bet is to check every hour and grab it as soon as you see it.

No rain today other than a few showers possible this morning. Dry rest of today. Tomorrows forecast has changed again to risk of sunshine and showers throughout the day. Wind is good.

Bloody adverts in the middle of posts is a pain.

4.45 am is not day. I said it had been dry all day, not night. There hasn’t been enough rain to call a meeting off. I believe once BV had called off this morning, riders were informed and those outside the UK remained there. Just an opinion of course. Promotions are being over cautious. Calling meetings off two days in advance because there’s a risk of rain is getting ridiculous. Kings Lynn and Somerset calling off 48 hours before tapes up? Might be wet now but 48 hours of drying winds is a long time. If Poole call off in the morning I would say the same.

Might be the right call now but 48 hours of drying time to be had. I could understand it if the forecast is bad but its not. If the track was still bad Wednesday afternoon call it off then.

Hahaha! People actually believe you have to live in a place to know what the weather is actually doing. Doyou know at this very moment theres a small shower slightly north of Long Beach, California. I am not there but know this is the case due to the weather radar online. Its called technology and it’s a wonderful thing. Lets you know whats happening around the world at this precise moment. All from your own living room. That’s how I know it was dry in Wolverhampton until a thin line of showers came through earlier this evening. And there’s a line of very heavy rain crossing Lyme Bay in Dorset as I type this. I am not in Lyme Bay, but guess what? I know it’s there! Remarkable!

Forecast for next two days is good. Dry tomorrow, risk of a few early showers Wednesday morning. Do promotions actually want to start the season?
