Good weather guaranteed

Just thought you’d all like to know that I have personally guaranteed good weather for us all at the Big Chill.

There are two reasons. Firstly, after weeks of listening to water trickle into my boat when it pours with rain, I have had the portholes fixed and am longing for a good storm to show me whether they are now watertight. Therefore, it will not rain. This works on the same principle as ‘washing your car makes it rain, taking a brolly to work with you makes the sun shine’.

Secondly, a friend of mine who has been living in a tent for two months is moving into the boat this weekend, whilst we are all under canvas at Eastnor. For weeks he’s been drenched every day and night. It stands to reason that with a solid roof over his head and hot water at his disposal, he won’t need either of them, doesn’t it?

I just thought I’d flag this up now so that you can buy me a beer when you find your feet are still dry at the end of the festival….
