September 13/14

[Ratman and Bobin]

Looking ahead at the weather for the coming weekend, it may prove to be a tad...damp in ol' Willy Nilly...so please dress accordingly!

Saturday: Scattered T-Storms, high 75 with a 40% chance of rain
Sunday: T-Showers, high 76 with a 50% chance of rain

As long as it doesn't water down the ale....

We think another Capt. be workin her magik on the weather for us, right tinker??
cheers,
ratman & bobin

[Old Tinker]

Captain, Oh my Captain Morgan, thee be right in the forecast,
but we's have magical secret weapons again precipitation.
first- there's CapnFayeCutler (if she did not use all her magic clear'n this past weekend), shall have a conference with Mother Nature (they seem to have a very good relationship when it comes to weather). Ratman & Bobin be correct.
second- there is the mantra that our Viking Mama, Ragna has remind'd us of-
  "Hey Tink.....fair weather no rain; faire weather no rain, faire weather no rain."
and last'ly but the most important - if you and Dwyn are present, everything is beautiful.
to serve thee, makes us happy  
dearest Imestra, be ready to make some changes to that forcast, see thee soon.
i be the Old Tinker and his Belle...

[FortuneRose]

As crazy as this may sound...  I'm okay with rain...  really, I'm perfectly okay with it.  But oh my....  74 degrees...  lovely...that will be soo wonderful...  I would even take 64!  (I love when the weather is cooler)

[Old Tinker]

good weather, rain, hot or cool,
the most important thing is that we all get to "Gather",
for when we do, we be happy.
i be the Old Tinker and his Belle...

faire weather no rain; faire weather no rain; faire weather no rain; 

[Capt. Morgan]

Most assuredly, Dwyn and I care not if it rains for your fellowship and love will always make the sun shine in our hearts...but "My Dear Mothers Pub" (The Aleing Knight Pub) has a tendency to take on the properties of a famous movie "A River Runs Through It" and the current almost always runs right past the place where many of us settle in for music, wit and convivial companionship. Still...coolish temps are most welcome! (We've been there in sleet!) and donning a cape and wearing the heavier of our garb envelopes us in warmth, as does your smiles and friendship, dearest Tinker and his Belle!

I remain yours ever,

Captain Morgan Dunne

I will be doing the anti-thunderstorm dance, and the anti-torrential downpour dance. 

I wouldn't -totally- mind a little rain, but would prefer if it were just cloudy.  (If ye couldn't tell, my skin and the sun aren't the best of pals.)  And I'm with FortuneRose on the temperature.  ^.^

I can't wait!

[Imestra]

According to the tome known as Ye Old Farmer's Almanac, this region of the country should have
for the period of 9/11 through 9/14;
Showers, then sunny & seasonable.

Good Tinker, I begin herewith my petition to the elements.

[Capt Lucy]

Rain???  SHORTER PUB LINES! 

_{not to mention ...everything is more fun in the rain...hehehe}

[Poof Bird]

Oh no!! This is the only day I get to go to faire this year, and it can't rain!!!  D:

*shoos the rain away*

[Scotsman]

Rain keeps the Drover out! Bring it on ... the faire will be all ours 

[CapnFayeCutler]

I'll get on top of that weather situation, never fret! Maybe it will be like last Sunday and rain well before gate and cool things off, then let it be clear for the rest of the day. That worked out pretty well.

[DuCoeur]

Rain, as Scotsman so eloquently put, will kepp the drovers away.  As far as the rain and cooler Temperatures...just means I get to wear more Garb!!!

I am very much looking forward to this weekend and being back to Willy Nilly...3 Days to go!!

[Ratman and Bobin]

We emailed ORF to see what time the parking lot gates open and here is their response.
cheers,
ratman & bobin

Hi Mike,
Well, we start selling tickets at the ticket booth at 10am so I think they might start letting people park around 9:30.
Thanks,

Hmmm, better pack the flask, as rain makes for excellent flask weather.

My wife also spoke with the ORF folk, and she reserved the space near the pub between 1PM and 3PM in the afternoon of the 13th just for the "Castleteer's" enjoyment, and possibly Photo Ops for the Queen...

I believe that it is the reception area for the weddings...
