Trouble is we have that guarantee from 'The Oracle' every year and the last time he was right was in 2007 (I think).

Having said that I have a theory that whatever it show when I first look at the Accu weather 15 day forecast the opposite will actually be true - as this year showed thunderstorms at first I am now optimistic!

I am sure that 2007 was one of the wettest years I remember, still if the oracle is wrong he can buy us all a nice warming cup of coffee

Doesn't it always say in the long-rage weather forecasts that we're due for heavy rain?

Apart from 2001 and 2007, which both initially predicted blissful sunshine.

I must confess that over coffee with the missus this morning I made the mistake of checking my Accuweather app - it didn't cheer me up.... But anything can happen - and often does. I refuse to be dispirited or distracted from my ever-present optimism!!

Sorry Ayse, but I'm taking brollies.There's optimism, and then there's flying in the face of horizontal sleet!
Besdides, I promised a Dutch mate a cheap Dunlop brolly, after Spa!

There's no way I'm bringin' umbrella's. I'll bring my usuall 'withstand any weather' gear and I'll probably bring it home unused like allways. (Except for 2001 that was...)

The weather's gonna be fine lads, don't worry.

It's interesting to see how the weather predictions change so quickly - that's why I refuse to be pessimistic. Yesterday when I looked, it was wall to wall water for the entire week. This morning, the prospects seem to have brightemed. Plenty of sunshine is predicted for the few days after Le Mans, so we only need to get that forward by a few days and hey presto...... Definitely no brolly for me.
