BBC's saying 26c on Thursday, which agrees with the weather app on my phone. Either way, I'd much rather have something in the high teens/low 20s! On the plus side, high temperatures will make Thursday an excellent weight-loss tool!Going Underground wrote:nozzacook wrote:Just seen weather forecast hope everybody ready for a hot one.

Olympics shouldn't be too much of a problem, it is only football on Thursday and none of the matches are at Wembley.
Soon to be yet another forum train driver

Are there any plans, as such, for the social networking side of things for Thursday? I'm planning to tweet progress updates to keep people up to speed. Perhaps we could all tweet (if anyone else is) using a common hashtag? Something like #tubeolympics?

TOSA Update:
Just a word of warning to all taking part tomorrow, please make sure you take on board plenty of water. It was really hot doing the DLR yesterday so I dread to think what the full network will be like tomorrow.
Perhaps as well as being Roving Reporter, Rhys could act as water boy!
Finally a list of competitors would be good, I'm thinking about going solo, but chances are I'm going round with Nozza & Kevin.
List of Competitors:
Soup Dragon
Going Underground
