Damned British Weather! I missed the finish!!
« on: June 19, 2005, 04:20:43 pm »
I couldn't believe it!!

We were supposed to be going to the race, then we couldn't, so David and I consoled ourselves with being able to watch it together (it being Father's Day and all) on Sky.  DavidsMum let me off the list of jobs she wants doing, thanks, Spouse.

Ten minutes before the end of the race, watching Le
Mans basking in fantastic sushine, the father of all thunderstorms arrives here and the TV screen feeezes.  Seconds later, we have hailstones the size of marbles bouncing on the drive, and then "No satellite signal is being received."

Well, we had been really enjoying it, (very bad luck for the Astons), even though the Astons didn't win like we'd dreamed, but to miss the end, I couldn't believe it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:(

Dont worry, for what its worth, the last 10 minutes, as you probably know are just a formation for the finish :-\
