Lots of options....... Depends what people fancy.

Parking in the town is always horrible. Granchester (sp?) is lovely & has some really nice pubs or a fantastic orchard tea-room.

This is the 'orchard tea room' >>> http://www.orchard-grantchester.com/

But it might be a bit nice for us lot so maybe the pub is a better option Razz

The forecast says light rain shower. That'll be like the light rain shower we had today, then.

Biblical.

The forecast is dry and warm. Goes to show not to take any notice of the weather 5 days in advance of a race.

Nice one Dan.

Metcheck says fair and 17 degrees
BBC says light rain and 19 degrees
The app on my iphone says cloudy and 18 degrees

They'll all say something different tomorrow.

I'm taking no notice of the forecast.
