Shame as it looks like the weather is going to spoil the outdoor events

Though according to BBC weather app Sunday pm looks ok

The weather is definitely not helping, some of the venues will be fine as they will be indoors or under cover.
eg the Queens, Morgans Hotel and the Swigg hopefully as for the rest we’ll just have to hope the weather gives us a break.
I feel bad for the organisers after all the hard work they have put in.
Fingers crossed
