I am just quoting from the MMOC homepage,
Definitely still going ahead!
We have ordered in some metallic road ways to ensure that people can get in and out of the site and weather forecast is better for the weekend !

Last time I was at Glastonbury ('92 or '93) we were knee deep in mud and the toliet facilities were extremely unhygienic to say the least
. Hopefully the national will be a little bit more civilised
.
My (previous) minor made it all the way to somerset and almost all the way back before stalling in the knightsbridge underpass. As the car and all occupants were absoulutely caked in mud it wasn't the best part of London to break down in. Hopefully my journey to the national will be less eventful!

Ah but Lee has large feet so they will work the same way as Tennis Rackets do on Snow

I'd recommend flip flops rather than wellies. They help your feet to breathe and mud is good for the skin (no, I don't know how feet "breathe" either but that's what I've been told)

Just heard from the actual rally site and they have spent today putting down temporary roads over the muddy bits.
The forecast also looks better now, but it will probabbly change again!
