Wolverhampton Sunday cancelled

[Baydale]

Sorry folks

, but I've just had a text from TalaveraII saying they've had to cancel tomorrow because of torrential rain and storms.

Bit of a bu**er for me and Marty the Naughty Hunter, doing his first novice at Buckminster on the basis of two PN runs.....wish me luck.

HUH?!! Torrential rain?! Strange... bit of a bugger...

 

[Baydale]

Yep, v strange to hear that: I'm still in my flip flops and shades.

Gosh we have had blazing sun over 28

What a shame. I guess they daren't risk trashing the racecourse.

Crikey...shows how localised these storms are. I did dressage not far from the event this morning...left around lunchtime and it was grey but no real rain around...although did look a bit of a stormy sky. Must have all come down this afternoon.

How annoying. You could always come to Elms Farm to help me pick Poppy up when she trips over the XC jumps (yes they really are that small!

)

Was thundering nicely in Penkride at tea time and that's only a hop skip and a jump away from Wolverhampton, sky black but no rain................... yet

Called in today just after lunch before the BE 90 started, some parts of the XC were very boggy and we have had patchy heavy rain for the rest of the day, some of the jumps were fixed and the ground was getting quite cut up on take off and landing ares so I assume it was done for safety reasons, pitty realy as the xc was ideal for a young horse.

Wolverhampton town centre was rather flooded yesterday evening, drains were blocked everywhere it was torrential rain for a good 3/4 hours!
