PS. for those of you who dont know what DoE is, its the Duke of Edinburgh award. It shows your skill and activities, and it goes on your UCAS form(resumes) and the universities take it into account when selecting candidates

Don't know where you looked but it's been like that for the last few days. I don't trust these long-range forecasts but all the usual weather sites say the same this time. Keep your fingers crossed.

I am on a work server at the moment. I suppose the could have been a refresh problem (I use the Met Office Weather for Cambridge)

Might have done, but I'll be elsewhere on Saturday instead, darn sight cheaper as well.
