Tragic news - storm damage


Recommended Posts

I'm sad to report that the 'home of the F', AV8 in Gloucestershire has been extensively damaged in the stormy weather.

AV8 will remain closed for some time đŸ˜Ș

That is a shame, it presumably doesn't stop us meeting there but does mean there would be no cake 😭

Yep - it is sad. The Birth place of LOC / WelshBlatter meets is poorly 😱

Bad times 😔. What happened exactly, @Warrington guy is handy with a trowel, if they need a new flank wall.... 

@emjay82 Wind took the roof off!

Every cloud has a silver lining. I've been talking to one of my contacts at Lexus and we are thinking of organising a big F event at AV8 when it reopens!

That's a real shame. I read it was only replaced 3 years ago. airfields by their nature are windy places so guess would have been design for that -  wind speeds must have got pretty high. It was blowy over here but not roof re-movingly bad. Nothing that says anyone was hurt etc which is of course a good thing. It is a good place to meet with lots of parking and interior space. Although need to try it on a nice sunny day as my 1 trip there was quite wet.

Yeah a few of those would do it but the one I had is probably past its bestÂ đŸ€ą
