CSS and wet weather?

As we all know the British Weather is unreliable at the best of times, but what happens if/when you do a CSS day and the weather goes to pot?

I don't have any spare wheels/discs etc with wets on, and the tyres on the bike (208GP's) aren't exactly made for wet use.

Obviously if this was a normal TD I'd be there twiddling my thumbs waiting for the weather to change for the better, but CSS is a school, not a trackday, I'm guessing you cannot skip one, two, three sessions etc waiting for a change in the weather? Can CSS still teach their drills in wet conditions? I am sure they can, but can they be as effective?

You could argue that it would be my fault for not turning up on a set of rubber for the conditions, but I wouldn't dream of riding in the wet anyway (I am the fair weather biker )

Do CSS have a tyre service? although I've never ridden on wets, or I guess at a cost I could use one of their R6's???
