Think I may just wait till Monday at the showground instead. I had been looking forward to ending my self imposed exile but the weather has literally dampened my enthusiasm It's so bitter right now and will be similar tomorrow - the sofa and central heating are winning in the battle for my attendance right now!!

kelvinht Posted March 30, 2022 Report Share Posted March 30, 2022 Heart says go and cheer on the Stars. Brain says don't be ****** stupid, strong winds, very cold and some rain in the day. Jury out, but my cosy woodburner winning at mo, but only just..! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arch Stanton Posted March 30, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2022 I plumped for a season ticket literally right on the last day they were available as they seemed decent value this year. If I hadn’t, then I’m not sure I’d be going tomorrow either.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst it may be cold at the speedway,you would save a fortune by going and not putting the central heating on. 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bald Bloke Posted March 31, 2022 Report Share Posted March 31, 2022 (edited) I’ll be watching the updates I can’t justify 150 miles worth or fuel, and entry, that’s 45 quid without food and a drink.

Arch Stanton Posted March 31, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2022 Brass monkeys out there alright! Supposed to be pretty windy today too so factor in the wind chill and it’ll be pretty painful standing around tonight. Please just crack on with it and don’t pi$$ about with a bloody interval.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldyman Posted March 31, 2022 Report Share Posted March 31, 2022 It's going to be my first ever first home meeting I've missed, but the warm sofa and darts has defo won the day for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagpuss Posted March 31, 2022 Report Share Posted March 31, 2022 We've woken to a covering of snow and hail & sleet showers this morning FFS. Enthusiasm for standing in the cold at speedway is zero at the moment but we'll see how we feel later..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a Good Friday when some of Leicester team couldn't get to King's Lynn because of snow blocking the A47, I've read. It gave Mike Lee a chance which he grabbed with both hands. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was there that Good Friday morning Lee rode for KL and if my memory serves me right Lee beat the then England captain Ray Wilson 2 or 3 times though I guess some would argue Wilson was passed his best still a great achievement for a 16 year old on debut . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bash Posted March 31, 2022 Report Share Posted March 31, 2022 That snow won't be there long, they've only called it off as it's cold and probably won't get a good crowd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
