Hi - might take a trip up tomorrow (21st) but understand the GR4s may not fly having flown today? Can anyone confirm or provide any insight as to how busy it's likely to be with 'Phoons or otherwise. Appreciate nothing is ever certain but would rather come on a busy day if poss.TIA.

Hopefully it's a busy Typhoon day as I'm going.
Looks like I'll have to wander over on Thursday as well now

Brian, 'poached' your reply to Sebcoe, as I suspect did many others. Thank you very much. Folk don't always respond but I'm sure we all appreciate both your own and several others assistance. I know I do. Cheers !
