We all arrived at the layby at about the same time this morning (within about 2 minutes of each other), so all 5 of us could walk to the flying point together.
Terry B was about 20 minutes later.
When we got about 1/2 way up the slope, Jack was already flying , so we stopped at that point (why walk any further).
Lift was great, wind was howling at about 33 mph.
Then it started to rain quite a bit , on and off for a reasonable amount of time, it was getting cold and wet by about 10:00.
Geoff D called me to ask is it worth coming ? But I said stay at home in the warm.
In fact the rain eased and we were then able to fly in relatively good conditions for another hour. We all had enough by 11:15.
Many thanks to Pete G, Jack, Marc, Graham U, Terry B and Geoff D (for trying to get there). All-in-all it was worth the trip, but pretty cold.
See you all again soon,
Rob
