Weather watch
 

Looking good.

Bit of rain (showers) on Sunday, that'll be the day I skip on track completely then :lol:

Saturday looks good. And isn't Spa on the Sunday :)

Martyn, can't you just blow the rain clouds away on Sunday? :whistle: :norty: :lol:

Me too :-o

Kerstin

Although,you may wish to be in another country at the time
:fart::fart::fart::fart:

Botswana springs to mind :whistle:

Oh my goodness, what have I let myself in for?????????????:lol::lol:

Trust me Kerstin, you really don't want to know.

He has an extremely vile bottie what what what!

:shock: :paranoid::faint: :lol: :lol:

It could be an interesting crossing though, a bit breezy in Friday.

There may be some :vom:

If its rough I will be driving to folkstone and getting tunnel

It's shouldn't be bad mate.

18mph from the North East. Should actually flatten it a bit :nod:

I thought you liked it rough!

Will send link regarding other post when I get home on my PC.

No Greg
You got me confused with Worzel and his Gimp weekends

It may well change by then though. :nod:

Lunch beside the river in Cochem is on the cards I reckon .

No speeding out the town this year :-)

Yeah I can't afford to pay your fines ;)

Lol, bloomin good job you helped me out mate

So you think I'll be safe this year, Martyn? :D If they catch me another time with 26 to much or more I'll have to walk for a month. :shock::shock::paranoid::zoiks::zoiks:

I can confirm the weather out here is FANTASTIC!

Just sat in jackies garden having a nice cold one

See you guys Friday

That's what we like to hear mate :ok: :beer: :ok:

I hope your feeling a little more human now mate

Weather here ain't to bad either, just had to come inside for a while as i was getting burnt :-o

Much better now thanks Martyn

Now relax with 2 hours on the ring tonight.

Big thanks to you & the guys!

See you Friday

Weather's good here in Leuven too :)

Going for a walk in a bit to get our bearings, find a beer or two. Might even put some shorts on!

Bloomin heck mate, thats a marathon and a half.

Come on steve, get to the squre and sit and have a nice beer.
Its a lovely place

What he said :agreed:

Mmmmmmmmmmmm Belgian beer! :beer:

Got the iPad on the hotel wireless, gonna take a look at google maps to work out where we are now! Any recommendations from your previous visit?

In fairness mate, we were only there a few hours. Visited a couple of bars and had a coffee & cake in a cafe.

The only way I can describe where we went is:

From the big Church where the shops are, walk into the old square. As you walk into the square, look 90 degrees right and the first bar you see is where we went. After that, looking out into the square from the bar, to the left is an alleyway, go down there and there is a lot of cafes, small bars and restaurants etc. They all looked pretty good from memory.

Steve

The place we went to is called the "Oude Markt"

Which is to the rear of the town hall and to the right as you face the town hall (the steps we were on Martyn)

Oh great.!!! Was already dreading the crossing, and in hindsight wished I had just taken the tunnel. If I have a bad crossing going over, I will be paying the extra and taking tunnel back home.

Worried about crossing, worried about breaking car, and worried about not being able to get track insurance and potential consequences, has taken the edge of things for me big time :(

It won't be that bad Rob

The wind will be little more than a breeze now they are saying. And when it's from the north east it will flatten the water anyway.

Rob
thats what makes it an exciting trip mate:wink:

Crossing, im same as you on that one, but its only 1.5 hours max.

Car will be fine providing you dont do constant high speed runs like our Mr E

As for the ring, its bloomin dangerous and any twat can have you off, but the thril and rush is second to none, and i have money on it, that after one lap, you will be gagging to do more.

Cheers mate, found the oude markt, some great bars in that square. Also found a small street lined with restaurants, now stuffed from some cracking steak and beers :)

Weather is looking spot on..



Happy days are here again :doubleup:

Suntan lotion packed :)

Check the weather now , looking bloomin perfect

I did 4 laps the first year i went out without even thinking about the consequences! its absolutely awesome and a must!!

I intend to at least get one lap in just to say I've done it, but no doubt will end up getting caught up in the moment..

Good news re- weather and potential flat crossing.

Will throw a sponge over car tonight, and throw some bits in a bag and no doubt have a cracking weekend.
