I have packed spare gloves[1] and a waterproof over-jacket.

If it's rubbish weather on Saturday I'll just have a wander around
Sedan.

Sunday will just be a "grin and bear it" 200 mile schlep up to Dunkirk.
I'm glad I booked the ferry for the return as it will be a chance to
get some food, chill and (maybe) dry out & warm up a bit!

[1] Although they're very old so unlikely very waterproof[2]
[2] The rain always gets in at the cuff anyway, whatever I try.

Well you know that forecasts are less reliable the more days ahead they
are made, it could all change by Friday.

And Cab, Jeremy O and I did exactly that. Ardennes hairpins are
definitely one way to snap oneself out of a massive hangover.
