Weather: The 'official' climate data says the average maximum temperature in May is 16C (61F) and the average minimum is 7C (45F). The average rainfall for the month of May is 52mm (2.1 in). However, this temperature and rainfall information will not be very helpful as the variation can be great. There is really no hot or cold or wet or dry season! Daytime temperatures can be in the range 10C (50F) to 22C (72F). Sometimes temperatures can fall to 5C (41F) to 12C (54F) at night. Rain is less predictable - it may be dry for the entire meeting or rain most days! This is why the weather is an important topic of conversation in England! Bring warm clothing and rainwear and an umbrella (none of which may be needed). Rail Travel in the UK: Rail enquiries can be made at 0345 484950 (local call rate). UK railway timetable is at http://195.92.21.203/bin/query.exe/en. This web information should be treated with some caution, especially for weekend travel when trains may be re-routed or re-timed. For those staying on in the UK after the meeting, Monday 29 May is a Bank Holiday so train services may run to a Sunday (a reduced) timetable on some routes and have additional trains on other routes depending on the holiday traffic expected. General: There are banks, a post office and a good selection of shops in Newbury within walking distance of the MERANT building. Since Monday 29 May is a Bank holiday, public services may be different on that day. Most banks and many shops will be closed. Saturday activities: On Saturday 20 May, we have arranged: - A guided tour of Highclear Castle, which belongs to the Earl of Carnarven who has amongst his belongings findings from King Tut's tomb and items depicting horse racing history. - A champagne reception and lunch. - A flat race meeting at the Newbury race course. - A meal in the evening. - Transportation for these events.
