There was a slightly dubious forecast, so all the kit was prepared, however before the launch point could be set up the sky became rather black and the first downpour arrived. This was followed by another and another and another.....
Not wanting to sit around drinking too much tea, the Thursday regulars decided to renew both winch cables, but getting the timing right between the heavy showers proved impossible, and most had to dry out in the Clubhouse.

The Junior trailer received a springclean? from Liam and Ollie, and then the Junior was prepared and derigged for the trip to Lasham for Liam flying in the Junior Nationals. The resplendent new Eagle trailer arrived, and was checked for size, getting ready for it's adventure to Pocklington and Sutton Bank. - Regular reports are expected from both trips please.
By lunchtime it was clear that the frequency of showers and by now the state of the field was not going to play ball so the kit was all dried and put away.
After a day when the DSGC website became increasingly unavailable after the intermittent problems this week, it looks like it might have been recovered this evening.
