Weather Watch 2021

I couldn't believe how much wetter it was walking round this morning than it was yesterday.

It's ALMOST like talking about the weather and the course isn't worth doing until a few days before :indecisiveness:


:devilish::highly_amused:



Here we are though, 6 pages deep :cheerful:
If I had my way this thread wouldn't even have started until today :barbershop_quartet_member:

Gonna camp out there tonight so I can provide hourly updates throughout the evening. See if we can get to 40 pages by Monday :devilish::highly_amused:

What is it with us Brits, we talk about the weather all year round and moan about the rain, then just before Cheltenham we can't get enough of it and then discuss it by the minute. Just checked my barometer again but probably not relevant here in Kent.

Looking forward to the next update from our own FJ Weather Girl.
 
Losing faith in Charlies weather updates too sketchy and not enough rainfall in his reports:playful:

That's the British Bulldog Spirit Charlie !!! :cheerful::applause:.
 
Top stuff Charlie. Woke up very excited myself. The week is nearly here! Good Luck All
 
Here now. Little to no rain overnight I’d say, very bright and a little windy. Some of the Irish are out on track and I’m officially buzzing my tits off

Yesssss Charlie :D

Well done on all your reports Charlie
 
Bit of rain around tonight but if there’s no more Wed could be as quick as it’s been for many years...

The year that Faugheen won the Ballymore, Mullins wasn't happy about the ground, saying it was far too quick and a few of his horses were injured as a result. I think he said he would pull horses if the ground got like that again.

Let's hope we get decent jumping ground.
