OK guys. Looks like the weather is going to beat us. There is heavy snow forecast for Chesham tomorrow morning and light snow on Sunday until 3pm with a maximum temperature of zero degrees, so I would like to propose a postponement of 2 weeks until Sunday 7th April.

I hope this date works for as many as possible. It makes no sense to risk life and limb  this weekend. Luckily, I didn't get the bacon and rolls today so we will have fresh ones in 2 weeks.

Sorry Andy,

I chose the 7th to allow time for the guys going to Brittany to get sorted in time.

Good call Ali !! It's been snowing here in Denham overnight so it's probably very white in Chesham already...........
Sunday 7th April works for me as a reschedule...... ;-))
At risk of doing something exciting!

CV boot  ? hope you got at least a garage to work in. Starting the neighbours  VW campervan this morning was not much fun either.

 

My son has heated garage facilities for winter. They have a fancy coffee machine too.

A  case of real ale arrangement with his boss gives me weekend access :)

Don't encourage him - he'll be pulling his trouser pockets inside-out and.....
