We did a slow tidy up this morning and didn't get over to event until midday. Just in time to meet Sue and Robin coming back and say goodbye.
We went to the Rolex Driver's Club for lunch and were joined by Nina and Colin. Said goodbyes to a few people including Howden and Joy, as well as Gillian Goldsmith who had befriended Noel and given him valuable advice about racing here. Such a shame he didn't get the opportunity to use it!
By the time we left the Club, a severe and cold wind had come up bringing driving rain. Noel went to pack up some of his equipment and ran into my cousin's wife's sister and husband. Unfortunately I wasn't there.
I walked back to the camping ground via the Goodwood shops and bought a raincoat, which I lost no time slipping into. The walk back was long, bitterly cold.
Noel spent some time in the rain trying to clean the inside of the trailer and pack some things in it before we re able to load the Gemini in the morning.
I sat and watched an amazing parade of cars, caravans, trucks and vans trying to get out through the mud. Two tractors are trying to tow a huge rig out of its parking place. One was not enough!
It will be our turn in the morning!
