I'll be there too, My hairs not long enough, and I don't own any wellies, so I won't be going to Glastonbury!
The weather will be fine, I seem to remember last year it rained like mad the one day, and then we were atacked by killer bugs the other day due to the heat!

Hope Nicki's ok, We had a Marshals evening last night and she fell badlly (to much drink!!) and was whisked of to hospital, She could be the one in the turbo powered wheel chair with a whip!

For the record, in that picture, i'm protecting myself from the rusty coloured water in the tires!

Just been looking on Christian Bakkerud's website, it reads the trouble began in first qualifying when he slid off on oil on a fast corner... Since the marshals were not displaying any kind of oil warning, the next car also got caught out and crashing right on top of Christian's car There wasn't a drop of oil there!!

wensleydale · 28 Jun 2005, 13:34 (Ref:1341991)

Ah good old tyre wall water, lovely stuff isn't it

Ian Sowman · 28 Jun 2005, 13:43 (Ref:1341998)

At some circuits they gather it up in buckets, heat it up and then sell it as tea at the catering stands.

You didn't imagine he was going to admit to a mistake, do you?
