They're fantastic, along with an array of other sea creatures. One of the rainy evenings last year Carrefour did us a spectacular fruits de mer platter which was highly worthwhile.

Appreciate they're not for everyone, but that just leaves all the more for those of that do indulge...

Not really, to be honest. We'll probably do the pitwalk on Wednesday morning when there's virtually no-one there.

Have checked and goretex fits into the go bag (assuming it's sitting under my legs in the MR2) so fine for Saturday test day, and as for Friday? We'll be pitching camp, which is dismal in the wet, but I'm sure we can push through.

Probably checking the weather now is a decent shout. As fairly soon the forecast will completely change in the days leading up to the race. And then switch back again just before we set off.

Synchronising that arrival and departure could be very handy!

Getting closer now, could we say weatherforcast is more reliable now. It is going to be a warm one, not like 2005, but still. Yeaaaaaaah love it. Sun sun sun and more sun. I'll bring a extra gazebo for shade on the campsite.

Latest forecast I saw calls for a 60-90% chance of sun on race week days, but with the lower end of that chance interval on Friday and Saturday. Still warm though, 24-28 degrees C as maximum temps.
