Saturday definitely looking better now, rather than the downpour all day as predicted.

happy for it to tip it down today so we can get it all out of the system! sunshine and showers - so super greasy then - better call Egger Lawson now and put some insurance on!

It probably wouldn't be so bad if Brands had a decent covered grandstand.

Hi Simon, yes I now work for Brands Hatch See you at the weekend?

I've just been round the paddock chatting to all the teams and making sure all is as it should be. Still plenty of people arriving so the outer paddock is very busy. Back at my desk now coz it's raining again

You must be paid a lot of money Stephen if you can spend the day watching the track dry out. May be the "Stepen Green" stand would be more appropriate!!

Correct! I also try to get local residents to sponsor grandstands, but I'm not having much luck with that one so far

When I win the lottery and sell my Transit van (probably buy a helicopter or two) I will also sort out the grandstand.
