Good luck lads.
UP THE DEISE!!!!!!!

If you can keep your head when all around you have lost theirs, then you probably haven't understood the seriousness of the situation.

HI Lads

Sorry to mess you around but to keep you in the know...


IF the forecast wind direction for Saturday stays the same (southerly), then due to safety concerns we will have to switch the 2 days around

That would mean the 150 and 175 on Saturday in a strong 45 degs cross wind

BUT.... as some consolation

Sunday would have the 100 and 125 gram leads in a strong wind in the best direction for the venue (the direction that most of the big casts come in)


Sorry to mess you about but safety has to be our main concern and we didn't expect the weather that we are going to get

ON the plus side, it might not be as wet as we first feared

cheers

Mark
