The other issue is that July is a bad time for any event as it's just when everybody gets into pre-holiday (vacation for
@Spikerz ) mode, Holding the event in September made a lot more sense as there were at least new shineys to keep up the interest from the trade
That and the fact that, apparently, it never ever rains anywhere in Europe, except for Britain, where it apparently rains all the time, and if it does rain anywhere in Europe ever, it is because the British are there and have brought the rain with them, as it is common knowledge that everybody with a UK passport also has a personal rain cloud issued at the same time by the Met Office to follow them wherever they may travel.
I could have seriously punched several people on Sunday afternoon, "You British, you bringz ze rain, you wantz to make uz practice for Bazildon".
Instead I just called them sausage/snail eating (insert stereotypical national dish as appropriate) xenophobic casually racist ****s!
