Most members were dressed more for a trans-antartic
trek than for gliding but we managed to get all the gliders up to the N/W corner
without frostbite, Mark & Roly did a met flight to report a 600ft cloud
base, so back to the clubhouse for an early lunch.
After lunch and after a lot fumbling and heated
debate we at last started flying, there was a hint of wave but apart from some
extended flights nobody managed to contact it.
Normally at this time of the year we eagerly await
the return of the swallows but it has been reported, but not confirmed that
penguins were seen in the N/W corner! JS.
