Good idea! Hold a metal pole above your head 
Thunder is expected as well as patchy showers. But getting clearer in the evening...
Sun sets at 21:20
Max temp 25 deg
So warm and shitty, with continuous patches of crappy and a pissy weather front coming down from the north.
nice
So it's Finsbury II then? 
Do the sensible thing then people, stay in the pub until 5 minutes before the Order come on. That's what we usually do. Then drunkenly barge yer way to the front :D

funnt that i was just about to look on the bbc site for the weather in london fri,but i came here instead! If we get wet then we get wet,simple as that!
Er... maybe I'm missing something here... Glasto is a long way from London!
- What would Glasto be without a mudbath? - You've asked for it!
I think I'm happier cracking open a can sat in front of BBC3...
Ah, oops, sorry it's Hyde Park on Friday - pardon my f**kwittedness!!!
I can't make it, therefore I deleted my awareness of it (Hyde Park) so as to avoid mental trauma...
We had 'thunderstorms' in London yesterday as well. Lasted all of 10mins at 10am. Back to boiling again come the afternoon.
I wouldn't worry about it.

Kick off isn't 'til 4pm (for music) so let's hope it's out the way by then

Surely you're gonna be with all of us in the pub till way after then anyways, Slipmeister?!
We don't bite. 
Mrs is down in the smoke at the minute and been informed by the locals that it will be clear skies on the friday.
We shall see!
If it rains in town on Friday, it will be because of Norverners "bringing the weather with 'em"!
You have been warned!

According to our weather site (don't ask me where they took their information), it's cloudy with a high of 26 degrees...
No rain
The BBC 5-day forecast has switched in the past hour to having Friday down as 'sun with a fluffy white cloud', to 'sun with a nasty black cloud and two rain-drops' (Saturday has just one rain-drop).
Bollocks. :(

BTW, this is for London, not here.... 
Just pray it's nothing like north Yorkshire over the weekend! that was crazy shit, but enjoyable to be caught in at the same time!
I'll just get monstered in the pub beforehand. That way I wont notice getting soaked to the bones:dead:

Problem with that plan...too many numpty (southern)English and Glass gutted yanks here. It takes a crazy scotsman/irishman/northerner to pull that shit off convincingly.....I usually find that letting as much Belfast as possible into the voice and yelling "dyou know who I am, I'll have you fuckin shot" works remarkably well on the mainland...I mean THEY dunno I'm a card carrying chicken shit....so it's like the parting of the red sea.
it's probably not as effective since my more retarded countrymen have thankfully given up on making holes all over the mainland. (PS....sorry about that BTW, we try to keep them over here, but it's hard). And you can all but foget getting a seat on the rush hour tube by leaving a funny lookin bag and saying "keep an eye on that" in yer best paddy voice, then leggin it....whoosh...empty stattion :)
PS....what's the fastest sport in the world....f1? champ cars? Nascars?......nope...."pass the parcel" in a belfast pub.
re: forecast. currently predicting hot sunny day with thunderstorms late.
could be a Finsbury park in reverse....
Slippy the weatherman's Hyde Park morning update is as follows:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/24hr.shtml?world=0008
See you all there!
25% chance of rain between 6pm and midnight at the venue.
100% chance you'll be soaked if this is 75% wrong...
definitely the shorts. If it pisses down it's still going to be bloody hot. Long trousers ain't going to stop you getting wet!
hopeful signs on the forecasts that the thunderstorms will miss London. very hot but quite cloudy here at the moment.

So, just to be clear about it Seb. You reckon the shorts...the shorts...the shorts??? Shorts it is then.
I'm in SW London right now and it's looking overcast. Who cares though really.
Shorts.
I'm looking out of me spare room window at Ally Pally and it's hazy here, but so fcuking CLOSE. No air whatsoever.
Could do with a thunderstorm (1min only please!) just to clear the air so we can BREATHE!
Just had a text from Brasco saying it's gonnae be raining, my reply.....who cares, we'll be in the pub anyway:D
He says XFM are broadcasting the show tonight, I hope someone is recording it
I'll try and lift it off sky digital ( if it's the same XFM). What time's kick off for the Order?

8.45 according to the Wireless site.
We've just had a mental thunderstorm, it seem to have gone now, still a bit dull and overcast though.
Hello from southwest London!
The sun is in and out a little, the humidity's up and there is broken white cloud. I'd say a ten percent chance of rain later so I shall time to run (as it were).
Forecast for later:
Hyde Park, London: occasional showers, drying up before a gig both brilliant and awful by the Order. Drink: moderate.
Headingley, Leeds: Leeds Rhinos 36 London Broncos 42. Loiners drop first points for an age. Disappointment amongst Rhinos followers: moderate.

Interesting result there. Not proper Rugby though ;)

yes, shorts indeed.
Stupid fuckin messageboard. (And it can repeat that 3 times if it wants to as well)
In Osterley and it's very hot and very cloudy. lovely.
Even the BBC site reckons the main rain will miss us now.
Yer all so busy worryin but HP, you aint noticed that Glasto aint started yet...."too dangerous"....LOL, refer to my earlier post regarding the summoning of lightning.
Listen all of you.....have a fucking cunt of a good time, I'll be listenin in in my capacity as "virtual viking".
Listen all of you.....have a fucking cunt of a good time,
Yeah - what he said. Expect a full report from all of you ... that is if you don't get your twins zapped by lightning.
