Hey its going to be raining on the day, but dont let that put you off! I have bocked in rain and snow before and its no problem, unless you are the wicked witch of the west and you might melt if touched by water, lol. Bring a brolly if you must but im not going to bother, im just going to soak it up, like dancing in the rain but bocking in the rain. jelly x
You can buy cheap £1 plastic rain coats from Poundland if it doesn't rain don't open it and save for another day. You can re-use it but it's folded in the bag better than you can put back in so leave it in the bag !?
I've got a size (L) and I can just about Bock in it and you know how big I am !?

Well , according to my forecast any rain will be once we are just slowly plodding the route. Showing off in the fiels will be unaffected. So its all cool as I see it.

Ill be uploading some funds 2morrow  and hopefully another fund raising initiative ( hint hint Colin).  Ive purchased my 'rail ticket for life'

This now means one thing to b desided on.....

....WHAT 'SWEETS FOR LIFE' ARE WE BRINGING?

Think Ill stick to the tried and trusted ASDA ecconomy Jelly Babis

I've not seen the weather for Sunday yet but if it's really wet and crappy then I won't be turning up, as bocking will be pointless, it'll be cold and miserable, and another very long day for me with all the train travel.  TBH I'm near burnout after this weekend at the London Expo, I'm very tired, Fuzzbutt work is piling up and I need to tell myself to have a break or I'll be doing my health no good at all, so an extra days rest on Sun will help.  If weather is good then I'll be there, but probably only 50% of me will be there as the rest will still be sleeping  :-\

latest weather update.  from windguru.cz.  There will be about 0.9mm of rain from 1600  but over a 6 hour period. Which basically means none!

However, temps are looking high--peaking at 23 degrees!! Forecast says lots of cloud ---suggesting hot and muggy.

This means taking on lots of water, slowly and steadily. Also dont bring loads of stuff. Water, mobile, money and a spare tee id advice.

Back on topic for a moment Have we arranged a meet up place and what time (is anyone getting there early )

Also I have a few people sponsering me all on the paper forms do I note this somewhere on the WfL web site (I'm a bit thick about some sites  :biggrin:) or just bring the forms on the day/send them in after with the money (looks bad on the site on £0.00 and a fair bit on paper )

Clive and I are thinking about driving up as parking is free on the Sunday so we might get there early

re money  dont worry fund raising goes on weeks after

the southern contingent is getting into waterloo 'around' 10 ( several lines west, south west and southern)  should be setting off for the field by 1015. Id expect to be there about 1030 or a lil after. Meet south east side of field.

Weather looking much better ( ie  no rain)

Bring sponsorship form and leave money at home and send it in later. Im getting into london bridge for 10.00am, so i can meet people there if they want. Waterloo station by the way is a long way off, its about a 30 to 45 minutes away from Potters feild park. So i suggest people make their way to London bridge instead as its only 5 minutes away.  jelly x

Hi Jason
Any chance you could bring 2 sets of Hoofies to the Walk tomorrow, (will give you money then) sorry to leave this request so late if you can't dont worry.

Looking forward to Bocking with you all.
