Where to begin?
Despite the early morning mist it was surprisingly warm at North Hill and most of the gliders were in the North West corner soon after 10:00. With a non-existent horizon and bits of cloud wandering about aimlessly at below 1000ft it was anybody’s guess as to how the day would turn out. - Badly is the answer!
Few flights lasted more than five minutes, the second one was a cable break and in all only about fifteen launches were made. At lunchtime it was decided to change ends and by the time lunch was taken low cloud had rolled in, the temperature dropped and the rain set in so we put all the toys back in the box and went home...
