I've got the Chimaera down in the car park in targa mode with the Leven hood cover on it.

I think I might get a little wet when I attempt to get the cover off and the roof panel on. :)

(Or is it not raining in biblical end-of-the-world stylee where you are? :hehe:)

Sounds like a sign-off on a letter to an Agony Aunt.

Edit: Or a letter in Forum.

Absolutely lashing it down here in Marlow, glad I came in the car rather than on the bike.

Surrey's getting darker...

Wouldn't mind a wild thunderstorm though - I love thunder and lightning

All I can say is

Mainly because I couldn't go this year and am really jealous of those who are there.

Perhaps the recent 20 foot security fence is making the entire site into a giant pond. Now wouldn't that be a laugh!

Well I did get wet. Very wet.

I surveyed the sky as I left work and it looked prety clear (it had rained heavily for much of the afternoon) so off came the roof. I didn't expect to catch up with the heavy clouds away to the East.

Just before I joined the M1 the heavens opened. They stayed well and truly open as I left the motorway to meander through the North London traffic.

I no longer have a Mid-Essex Ted in the passenger seat - it's more of a Mid-Essex Drowned Rat.

Still, at least it was cool and the decals got me lots of attention (as did sitting in traffic jams with the roof off in the pg rain.
