With a little cold advection forecast, it was slightly more promising than Saturday and RASP was showing some good convergence lines forming during the afternoon.
There were more members around than Saturday, and winching started fairly early.
High-based cumulus started popping just before lunchtime and private owners launched with a nominal task to Iwerne Minster (no we hadn't heard of it either), Hembury Hill and Shaftesbury for just over 300 km
The early launchers turned Iwerne Minster, but then a nice convergence set up on the south coast providing some nice lines of energy and going east again from Hembury wasn't as attractive as following the clouds into Cornwall.
Ron and Daniel ASH25 711, Simon ASW20 SM, John P Lak OG and Matt ASW20 M5 completed various beats of the convergence and all headed off to Bovey Tracey, as there looked like some good clouds the other side of the Exe valley completing nearly 300 km.

For ICL at Upavon, North Hill were second after Saturday, but Liam was struggling after his late night retrieve the night before, and didn't fly, but Jonathan St in ASW19 877 winning the novice and completed an 83 km cats cradle. Overall North Hill are now in 5th place with 18 points.
