Sunday Morning Flying

UPDATE: Wind looks like it's going to be NW now which means Ditchling won't work. Let's change venue to Devils Dyke and hope the early stronger winds keeps some of the paragliders on the deck. Get there early! If anything changes from above then I will edit this post. Keep an eye on the blog........

Looking at the weather for Sunday morning its forecast to be a NNW wind around 10knts and getting lighter as the day progresses. Speaking with Ian we agreed that the West side of Ditchling Beacon could be a good place to fly as it works in a NNW direction.
Because of the wind decreasing throughout the morning and the trouble we sometimes have parking at the Beacon I suggest we meet up around 9.00am and wander through the gate to fly.
Anyone else coming to join us?

Come along to our first ever social.

Thanks for the positive response regarding an evening get together (social).
I enjoyed my drink and the food at The Ardingly Inn when we went there for our AGM so why don't we meet there again as some of you know where it is.
I propose we meet on Thursday next week (6th October) around 7.00 - 7.30pm. Not too late for food and plenty of time for some healthy banter.
Please let me know in the comments section of this post if you can make it. I can give the pub a heads up on numbers. If this works out then maybe we can make it a regular thing at least through the winter nights.
Here is a link to the location of the pub - The Ardingly Inn Map Address: Street Lane, Ardingly RH17 6UA
Thanks again and I hope to see some of you next Thursday evening.
